3 Description
The DLP4500 digital micromirror device (DMD) acts
as a spatial light modulator (SLM) to steer visible
light and create patterns with speed, precision,
and efficiency. Featuring high resolution and high
brightness in a compact form factor, the DLP4500
DMD is well-suited for very accurate, portable
3D machine vision and display solutions used in
industrial, medical, and security applications.

5 Chipset Component Usage Specification
Note
TI assumes no responsibility for image quality artifacts or DMD failures caused by optical system
operating conditions exceeding limits described previously.
The DLP4500 is a component of one or more ®DLP chipsets. Reliable function and operation of the DLP4500
requires that it be used in conjunction with the other components of the applicable DLP chipset, including
those components that contain or implement TI DMD control technology. TI DMD control technology is the TI
technology and devices for operating or controlling a DLP DMD.

Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions. If
outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not be fully functional, and
this may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device lifetime.
All voltage values are referenced to common ground VSS. Supply voltages VCC, VREF, VOFFSET, VBIAS, and VRESET are all
required for proper DMD operation. VSS must also be connected.
To prevent excess current, the supply voltage delta |VBIAS – VOFFSET| must be less than the specified limit.
DMD Temperature is the worst-case of any test point shown in Figure 8-3 or Figure 8-4, or the active array as calculated by the
Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation, or any point along the Window Edge as defined in Figure 8-3 or Figure 8-4. The locations
of thermal test point TP2 is intended to measure the highest window edge temperature. If a particular application causes another point
on the window edge to be at a higher temperature, a test point should be added to that location.
