1 System Description

The DLPC1438 3D print controller supports reliable operation of the DLP300S and DLP301S digital micromirror devices (DMDs) for DLP 3D Printer applications. The DLPC1438 controller provides a convenient interface between user electronics and the DMD to enable fast, high resolution, reliable DLP 3D printers. Get started with TI DLP light-control technology page to learn how to get started with the DLP300S. The DLP advanced light control resources on ti.com accelerate time to market, which include reference designs, optical modules manufactures, and DLP design network partners. This reference design provides developers the ability to quickly implement a compact 3D Printer using DLP300S DMD coupled with the DLPC1438 controller and DLPA2005 PMIC/LED driver.
