3 Description
The DLP4500NIR digital micromirror device (DMD)
acts as a spatial light modulator (SLM) to steer nearinfrared (NIR) light and create patterns with speed,
precision, and efficiency. Featuring high resolution
in a compact form factor, the DLP4500NIR DMD
is often combined with a single element detector
to replace expensive InGaAs array-based detector
designs, leading to high performance, cost-effective
portable solutions.

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 DLP4500NIR is a component of one or more DLP® chipsets. Reliable function and operation of the
DLP4500NIR 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 or Figure 8-3, or the active array as calculated by the Micromirror Array
Temperature Calculation, or any point along the Window Edge as defined in or Figure 8-3. 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.

As a best practice, TI recommends storing the DMD in a temperature and humidity controlled environment.
Long-term is defined as the average over the usable life.
Short-term is defined as 1 V/ns. For slow slew rates >0.5 V/ns and
