PRODUCTION DATA
The DLP 0.55-inch SVGA chipset creates a powerful projection system. This chipset includes the DLP550HE, DLPC4430, DLPA100, and the DLPA200. The DLP550HE is used as the core imaging device in the display system and contains a 0.55-inch array of micromirrors. The DLPC4430 controller is the digital interface between the DMD and the rest of the system. The controller drives the DMD by taking the converted source data from the front end receiver and transmitting it to the DMD over a high speed interface. The DLPA100 power management device provides voltage regulators for the controller and colorwheel motor control. The DLPA200 provides the power and sequencing to drive the DLP550HE. To ensure reliable operation, the DLP550HE DMD must always be used with the DLPC4430 display controller, a DLPA100 PMIC driver, and a DLPA200 DMD micromirror driver.
Other core components of the display system include an illumination source, an optical engine for the illumination and projection optics, other electrical and mechanical components, and software. The illumination source options include lamp, LED, laser, or laser phosphor. The type of illumination used and desired brightness will have a major effect on the overall system design and size.
