6.3 Feature Description

The DLP3940S-Q1 consists of a two-dimensional array of 1-bit CMOS memory cells driven by a SubLVDS bus from the DLPC231S-Q1 and powered by the TPS99002S-Q1. The temperature sensing diode is used to continuously monitor the DMD array temperature.

To ensure reliable operation, the DLP3940S-Q1 must be used with the DLPC231S-Q1 DMD display controller and the TPS99002S-Q1 system management and illumination controller.
