3.2.1 Test Setup

The hardware from this reference design was connected to an optical system to measure LED pulse times and total power consumption. This was the same optical system used in DLP3030-Q1 Picture Generation Unit (PGU) EVM. The total power consumption is shown below in Table 3-3. The shortest LED pulse time is shown below in Figure 3-1.
