10.1 Test Patterns (TPG)

The controller has several pre-defined patterns that the user can select using TPG Pre-defined Pattern command. Use the DLP Composer tool to configure these pre-defined patterns The controller TPG block generates the pattern data. This option is useful for:

  • Testing the DLP hardware without an external source
  • Isolating whether an issue is arising from front-end source or related to image processing by the controller

These are additional configuration commands specific to test patterns:

Command NameDescription

Set TPG Border

Set border around selected TPG, border width can be 0 – 20; and border color programmable (R,G,B) value in the range of 0 - 1023.

Set TPG Resolution

Set the TPG pattern resolution. In case the resolution of the pattern is smaller than the display resolution of the DMD, controller will fill the area with pleasing color.

Set TPG FrameRate

Configure TPG frame-rate between 30Hz – 120Hz. There is dependency of the TPG resolution with respect to frame-rate; for example in case of 4K resolution max frame-rate will be limited to 60Hz and in case of 1080p resolution max frame-rate will be limited to 240Hz
