What is in the DLP3021-Q1 Light Engine EVM

The DLP3021-Q1 Light Engine EVM consists of three subsystems and two boards:

  • DLP3021LEQ1EVM board:

    • Formatter — Includes the DLP3021-Q1 DMD, FPGA based DMD controller, the MSP430G2553 MCU, external flash memory, and the TPS65100-Q1 PMIC.

    • Illumination Driver — Includes illumination drivers and FETs.

    • Light Engine — Compact light engine designed to display images from the formatter.

  • FTDI C232HM-DDHSL-0 USB to MPSSE serial cable for 3.3V logical level SPI communication with the FPGA based DMD controller and external flash memory. The Cheetah™ USB-to-SPI interface can be used as a faster alternative for USB-to-SPI communication, but must be purchased separately.

  • SPI Adapter board — intermediate board between the FTDI USB-to-SPI cable and DLP3021LEQ1EVM electronics board required for Host Mute and Flash Programming operating modes. Includes toggle switches to change the operating mode of the EVM.
