5 Description (continued)
Reliable function and operation of the DLP7000 requires that it be used in conjunction with the other components
of the chipset. A dedicated chipset provides developers easier access to the DMD as well as high speed,
independent micromirror control.
DLP7000 is a digitally controlled micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) spatial light modulator (SLM). When
coupled to an appropriate optical system, the DLP7000 can be used to modulate the amplitude, direction, and/or
phase of incoming light.
Electrically, the DLP7000 consists of a two-dimensional array of 1-bit CMOS memory cells, organized in a grid of
1024 memory cell columns by 768 memory cell rows. The CMOS memory array is addressed on a row-by-row
basis, over two 16-bit low voltage differential signaling (LVDS) double data rate (DDR) buses. Addressing is
handled via a serial control bus. The specific CMOS memory access protocol is handled by the DLPC410 digital
controller.

The functional performance of the device specified in this data sheet is achieved when operating the device within the limits defined by
the Recommended Operating Conditions. No level of performance is implied when operating the device above or below the
Recommended Operating Conditions limits.
Voltages VCC, VCC1, and VCC2 are required for proper DMD operation. VSS must also be connected.
All voltages are referenced to common ground VSS.
Exceeding the recommended allowable absolute voltage difference between VCC and VCC1 may result in excess current draw. The
difference between VCC and VCC1, |VCC – VCC1|, should be less than the specified limit.
Optimal, long-term performance and optical efficiency of the Digital Micromirror Device (DMD) can be affected by various application
parameters, including illumination spectrum, illumination power density, micromirror landed duty-cycle, ambient temperature (storage
and operating), DMD temperature, ambient humidity (storage and operating), and power on or off duty cycle. TI recommends that
application-specific effects be considered as early as possible in the design cycle.
In some applications, the total DMD heat load can be dominated by the amount of incident light energy absorbed. See Micromirror Array
Temperature Calculation for further details.
The array temperature cannot be measured directly and must be computed analytically from the temperature measured at test point 1
(TP1) shown in Figure 18 and the package thermal resistance in Thermal Information using Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation.
Simultaneous exposure of the DMD to the maximum Recommended Operating Conditions for temperature and UV illumination will
reduce device lifetime.
Long-term is defined as the usable life of the device.
Per Figure 1, the maximum operational case temperature should be derated based on the micromirror landed duty cycle that the DMD
experiences in the end application. Refer to Micromirror Landed-On/Landed-Off Duty Cycle for a definition of micromirror landed duty
cycle.
Array temperatures beyond those specified as long-term are recommended for short-term conditions only (power-up). Short-term is
defined as cumulative time over the usable life of the device and is less than 500 hours.
The temperature delta is the highest difference between the ceramic test point (TP1) and window test points (TP2) and (TP3) in
Figure 18.
Total integrated illumination power density, above or below the indicated wavelength threshold or in the indicated wavelength range.

The DMD is designed to conduct absorbed and dissipated heat to the back of the package where it can be removed by an appropriate
heat sink. The heat sink and cooling system must be capable of maintaining the package within the temperature range specified in the
Recommended Operating Conditions. The total heat load on the DMD is largely driven by the incident light absorbed by the active area;
although other contributions include light energy absorbed by the window aperture and electrical power dissipation of the array. Optical
systems should be designed to minimize the light energy falling outside the window clear aperture since any additional thermal load in
this area can significantly degrade the reliability of the device.

7.12 Micromirror Array Optical Characteristics
TI assumes no responsibility for end-equipment optical performance. Achieving the desired end-equipment
optical performance involves making trade-offs between numerous component and system design parameters.

(1) Measured relative to the plane formed by the overall micromirror array.
(2) “Parking” the micromirror array returns all of the micromirrors to an essentially flat (0˚) state (as measured relative to the plane formed
by the overall micromirror array).
(3) When the micromirror array is “parked”, the tilt angle of each individual micromirror is uncontrolled.
(4) Additional variation exists between the micromirror array and the package datums, as shown in the Mechanical, Packaging, and
Orderable Information.
(5) When the micromirror array is “landed”, the tilt angle of each individual micromirror is dictated by the binary contents of the CMOS
memory cell associated with each individual micromirror. A binary value of “1” will result in a micromirror “landing” in an nominal angular
position of “+12°”. A binary value of 0 results in a micromirror “landing” in an nominal angular position of “–12°”.
(6) Represents the “landed” tilt angle variation relative to the Nominal “landed” tilt angle.
(7) Represents the variation that can occur between any two individual micromirrors, located on the same device or located on different
devices.
(8) For some applications, it is critical to account for the micromirror tilt angle variation in the overall System Optical Design. With some
System Optical Designs, the micromirror tilt angle variation within a device may result in perceivable non-uniformities in the light field
reflected from the micromirror array. With some System Optical Designs, the micromirror tilt angle variation between devices may result
in colorimetry variations and/or system contrast variations.
(9) Micromirror crossover time is primarily a function of the natural response time of the micromirrors and is the time it takes for the
micromirror to crossover to the other state, but does not include mechanical settling time.
(10) Micromirror switching time is the time before a micromirror may be addressed again. Crossover time plus mechanical settling time.
(11) Array switching is controlled and coordinated by the DLPC410 (DLPS024) and DLPA200 (DLPS015). Nominal Switching time depends
on the system implementation and represents the time for the entire micromirror array to be refreshed (array loaded plus reset and
mirror settling time).
(12) Non-operating micromirror is defined as a micromirror that is unable to transition nominally from the –12° position to +12° or vice versa.
(13) Measured relative to the package datums “B” and “C”, shown in Mechanical, Packaging, and Orderable Information.
(14) The minimum or maximum DMD optical efficiency observed depends on numerous application-specific design variables, such as:
– Illumination wavelength, bandwidth/line-width, degree of coherence
– Illumination angle, plus angle tolerance
– Illumination and projection aperture size, and location in the system optical path
– IIlumination overfill of the DMD micromirror array
– Aberrations present in the illumination source and/or path
– Aberrations present in the projection path
The specified nominal DMD optical efficiency is based on the following use conditions:
– Visible illumination (400 nm – 700 nm)
– Input illumination optical axis oriented at 24° relative to the window normal
– Projection optical axis oriented at 0° relative to the window normal
– f/3.0 illumination aperture
– f/2.4 projection aperture

Based on these use conditions, the nominal DMD optical efficiency results from the following four components:
– Micromirror array fill factor: nominally 92%
– Micromirror array diffraction efficiency: nominally 86%
– Micromirror surface reflectivity: nominally 88%
– Window transmission: nominally 97% (single pass, through two surface transitions)
(15) Does not account for the effect of micromirror switching duty cycle, which is application dependent. Micromirror switching duty cycle
represents the percentage of time that the micromirror is actually reflecting light from the optical illumination path to the optical projection
path. This duty cycle depends on the illumination aperture size, the projection aperture size, and the micromirror array update rate.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
Optically, the DLP7000 consists of 786,432 highly reflective, digitally switchable, micrometer-sized mirrors
(“micromirrors”), organized in a two-dimensional array of 1024 micromirror columns by 768 micromirror rows
(Figure 12). Each aluminum micromirror is approximately 13.68 microns in size (see the “Micromirror Pitch” in
Figure 12), and is switchable between two discrete angular positions: –12° and +12°. The angular positions are
measured relative to a 0° “flat state”, which is parallel to the array plane (see Figure 13). The tilt direction is
perpendicular to the hinge-axis which is positioned diagonally relative to the overall array. The “On State” landed
position is directed towards “Row 0, Column 0” (upper left) corner of the device package (see the “Micromirror
Hinge-Axis Orientation” in Figure 12). In the field of visual displays, the 1024 by 768 “pixel” resolution is referred
to as "XGA".
Each individual micromirror is positioned over a corresponding CMOS memory cell. The angular position of a
specific micromirror is determined by the binary state (logic 0 or 1) of the corresponding CMOS memory cell
contents, after the micromirror "clocking pulse" is applied. The angular position (–12° or +12°) of the individual
micromirrors changes synchronously with a micromirror “clocking pulse”, rather than being synchronous with the
CMOS memory cell data update. Therefore, writing a logic 1 into a memory cell followed by a micromirror
"clocking pulse" will result in the corresponding micromirror switching to a +12° position. Writing a logic 0 into a
memory cell followed by a micromirror "clocking pulse" will result in the corresponding micromirror switching to a
–12° position.
Updating the angular position of the micromirror array consists of two steps. First, updating the contents of the
CMOS memory. Second, application of a Micromirror Clocking Pulse to all or a portion of the micromirror array
(depending upon the configuration of the system). Micromirror Clocking Pulses are generated externally by a
DLPA200, with application of the pulses being coordinated by the DLPC410 controller.
Around the perimeter of the 1024 by 768 array of micromirrors is a uniform band of “border” micromirrors. The
border micromirrors are not user-addressable. The border micromirrors land in the –12° position once power has
been applied to the device. There are 10 border micromirrors on each side of the 1024 by 768 active array.
Figure 8 shows a DLPC410 and DLP7000 Chipset Block Diagram. The DLPC410 and DLPA200 control and
coordinate the data loading and micromirror switching for reliable DLP7000 operation. The DLPR410 is the
programmed PROM required to properly configure the DLPC410 controller. For more information on the chipset
components, see Application and Implementation. For a typical system application using the DLPC410 chipset
including the DLP7000, see Figure 19.

8.3.1.4.1.1.2 Initialization
The INIT_ACTIVE (Table 2) signal indicates that the DLP7000, DLPA200, and DLPC410 are in an initialization
state after power is applied. During this initialization period, the DLPC410 is initializing the DLP7000 and
DLPA200 by setting all internal registers to their correct states. When this signal goes low, the system has
completed initialization. System initialization takes approximately 220 ms to complete. Data and command write
cycles should not be asserted during the initialization.
During initialization the user must send a training pattern to the DLPC410 on all data and DVALID lines to
correctly align the data inputs to the data clock. For more information about the interface training pattern, see the
DLPC410 data sheet (DLPS024).
8.3.1.4.1.1.3 DMD Device Detection
The DLPC410 automatically detects the DMD type and device ID. DMD_TYPE (Table 2) is an output from the
DLPC410 that contains the DMD information. Only DMDs sold with the chipset or kit are recognized by the
automatic detection function. All other DMDs do not operate with the DLPC410.
8.3.1.4.1.1.4 Power Down
To ensure long term reliability of the DLP7000, a shutdown procedure must be executed. Prior to power removal,
assert the PWR_FLOAT (Table 2) signal and allow approximately 300 µs for the procedure to complete. This
procedure assures the mirrors are in a flat state.

combines the necessary high-voltage power supply generation and Micromirror Clocking Pulse functions for a
family of DMDs. The DLPA200 is programmable and controllable to meet all current and anticipated DMD
requirements.
The DLPA200 operates from a 12-V power supply input. For more detailed information on the DLPA200, see the

The DLPA200 provides a variety of output options to the DMD by selecting logic control inputs: MODE[1:0],
SEL[1:0] and reset group address A[3:0] (Table 4). The MODE[1:0] input determines whether a single output, two
outputs, four outputs, or all outputs, will be selected. Output levels (VBIAS, VOFFSET, or VRESET) are selected
by SEL[1:0] pins. Selected outputs are tri-stated on the rising edge of the STROBE signal and latched to the
selected voltage level after a break-before-make delay. Outputs will remain latched at the last Micromirror
Clocking Pulse waveform level until the next Micromirror Clocking Pulse waveform cycle.
8.3.1.4.4 DLPA200 to DLP7000 Interface
8.3.1.4.4.1 DLPA200 to DLP7000 Interface Overview
The DLPA200 generates three voltages: VBIAS, VRESET, and VOFFSET that are supplied to the DMD MBRST
lines in various sequences through the Micromirror Clocking Pulse driver function. VOFFSET is also supplied
directly to the DMD as DMDVCC2. A fourth DMD power supply, DMDVCC, is supplied directly to the DMD by
regulators.
The function of the Micromirror Clocking Pulse driver is to switch selected outputs in patterns between the three
voltage levels (VBIAS, VRESET and VOFFSET) to generate one of several Micromirror Clocking Pulse
waveforms. The order of these Micromirror Clocking Pulse waveform events is controlled externally by the logic
control inputs and timed by the STROBE signal. DLPC410 automatically detects the DMD type and then uses the
DMD type to determine the appropriate Micromirror Clocking Pulse waveform.

DLPS026F – AUGUST 2012 – REVISED JUNE 2019
A direct Micromirror Clocking Pulse operation causes a mirror to transition directly from one latched state to the
next. The address must already be set up on the mirror electrodes when the Micromirror Clocking Pulse is
initiated. Where the desired mirror display period does not allow for time to set up the address, a Micromirror
Clocking Pulse with release can be performed. This operation allows the mirror to go to a relaxed state
regardless of the address while a new address is set up, after which the mirror can be driven to a new latched
state.
A mirror in the relaxed state typically reflects light into a system collection aperture and can be thought of as “off”
although the light is likely to be more than a mirror latched in the “off” state. System designers should carefully
evaluate the impact of relaxed mirror conditions on optical performance.
8.3.1.5 Measurement Conditions
The data sheet provides timing at the device pin. For output timing analysis, the tester pin electronics and its
transmission line effects must be taken into account. Figure 11 shows an equivalent test load circuit for the
output under test. The load capacitance value stated is only for characterization and measurement of AC timing
signals. This load capacitance value does not indicate the maximum load the device is capable of driving. All rise
and fall transition timing parameters are referenced to VIL MAX and VIH MIN for input clocks, VOL MAX and VOH
MIN for output clocks.

8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 DMD Operation
The DLP7000 has only one functional mode, it is set to be highly optimized for low latency and high speed in
generating mirror clocking pulses and timings.
When operated with the DLPC410 controller in conjunction with the DLPA200 driver, the DLP7000 can be
operated in several display modes. The DLP7000 is loaded as 16 blocks of 48 rows each. Figure 14, Figure 15,
Figure 16, and Figure 17 show how the image is loaded by the different Micromirror Clocking Pulse modes.
There are four Micromirror Clocking Pulse modes that determine which blocks are "reset" when a Micromirror
Clocking Pulse command is issued:
• Single block mode
• Dual block mode
• Quad block mode
• Global mode
8.4.1.1 Single Block Mode
In single block mode, a single block can be loaded and reset in any order. After a block is loaded, it can be reset
to transfer the information to the mechanical state of the mirrors.

quad group can be randomly addressed and reset. After a quad group is loaded, it can be reset to transfer the
information to the mechanical state of the mirrors.

8.5 Optical Interface and System Image Quality Considerations
NOTE
TI assumes no responsibility for image quality artifacts or DMD failures caused by optical
system operating conditions exceeding limits described previously.
8.5.1 Optical Interface and System Image Quality
TI assumes no responsibility for end-equipment optical performance. Achieving the desired end-equipment
optical performance involves making trade-offs between numerous component and system design parameters.
Optimizing system optical performance and image quality strongly relate to optical system design parameter
trades. Although it is not possible to anticipate every conceivable application, projector image quality and optical
performance is contingent on compliance to the optical system operating conditions described in the following
sections.
8.5.2 Numerical Aperture and Stray Light Control
The angle defined by the numerical aperture of the illumination and projection optics at the DMD optical area
should be the same. This angle should not exceed the nominal device mirror tilt angle unless appropriate
apertures are added in the illumination and/or projection pupils to block out flat-state and stray light from the
projection lens. The mirror tilt angle defines DMD capability to separate the "ON" optical path from any other light
path, including undesirable flat-state specular reflections from the DMD window, DMD border structures, or other
system surfaces near the DMD such as prism or lens surfaces. If the numerical aperture exceeds the mirror tilt
angle, or if the projection numerical aperture angle is more than two degrees larger than the illumination
numerical aperture angle, objectionable artifacts in the display’s border and/or active area could occur.
8.5.3 Pupil Match
TI recommends the exit pupil of the illumination is nominally centered within 2° of the entrance pupil of the
projection optics. Misalignment of pupils can create objectionable artifacts in the display’s border and/or active
area, which may require additional system apertures to control, especially if the numerical aperture of the system
exceeds the pixel tilt angle.
8.5.4 Illumination Overfill
The active area of the device is surrounded by an aperture on the inside DMD window surface that masks
structures of the DMD device assembly from normal view. The aperture is sized to anticipate several optical
operating conditions. Overfill light illuminating the window aperture can create artifacts from the edge of the
window aperture opening and other surface anomalies that may be visible on the screen. The illumination optical
system should be designed to limit light flux incident anywhere on the window aperture from exceeding
approximately 10% of the average flux level in the active area. Depending on the particular system’s optical
architecture, overfill light may have to be further reduced below the suggested 10% level in order to be
acceptable.

8.6 Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation
Achieving optimal DMD performance requires proper management of the maximum DMD case temperature, the
maximum temperature of any individual micromirror in the active array, the maximum temperature of the window
aperture, and the temperature gradient between case temperature and the predicted micromirror array
temperature. (see Figure 18).
See the Recommended Operating Conditions for applicable temperature limits.
8.6.1 Package Thermal Resistance
The DMD is designed to conduct absorbed and dissipated heat to the back of the Type A package where it can
be removed by an appropriate heat sink. The heat sink and cooling system must be capable of maintaining the
package within the specified operational temperatures, refer to Figure 18. The total heat load on the DMD is
typically driven by the incident light absorbed by the active area; although other contributions include light energy
absorbed by the window aperture and electrical power dissipation of the array.
8.6.2 Case Temperature
The temperature of the DMD case can be measured directly. For consistency, thermal test points TP1, TP2, and
TP3 are defined, as shown in Figure 18.

Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation (continued)
8.6.3 Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation - Lumens Based (typically used for display
applications)
Micromirror array temperature cannot be measured directly; therefore, it must be computed analytically from:
• the measurement points (Figure 18)
• the package thermal resistance
• the electrical power
• the illumination heat load
The relationship between micromirror array temperature and the reference ceramic temperature (thermal test
point TP1 in Figure 18) is provided by the following equations:
TARRAY = T CERAMIC + (QARRAY × RARRAY-TO-CERAMIC)
QARRAY = QELECTRICAL + QILLUMINATION
where
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
TARRAY = computed array temperature (°C)
TCERAMIC = measured ceramic temperature (°C) (TP1 location)
RARRAY-TO-CERAMIC = thermal resistance of DMD package (specified in Thermal Information) from array to
ceramic TP1 (°C/W)
QARRAY = total power (electrical + absorbed) on the array (Watts)
QELECTRICAL = nominal electrical power (Watts)
QILLUMINATION = (CL2W × SL) (Watts)
CL2W = conversion constant for screen lumens to power on DMD (Watts/lumen)
SL = measured screen lumens
The electrical power dissipation of the DMD is variable and depends on the voltages, data rates, and operating
frequencies. A nominal electrical power dissipation to use when calculating array temperature is 4.4 Watts. The
absorbed power from the illumination source is variable and depends on the operating state of the micromirrors
and the intensity of the light source. The conversion constant CL2W is based on the DMD input illumination
characteristics. It assumes a spectral efficiency of 300 lumens/Watt for the projected light and an illumination
distribution of 83.7% on the active array and 16.3% on the array border. The equations shown above are valid for
a system with a total projection efficiency through the projection lens from the DMD to the projection surface of
87%.

QARRAY = 2.0 + (0.00274 W/lm × 2000 lm) = 7.48 W
TARRAY = 55°C + (7.48 W x 0.9 °C) = 61.7 °C

Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation (continued)
8.6.4 Micromirror Array Temperature Calculation - Power Density Based
Micromirror array temperature cannot be measured directly; therefore, it must be computed analytically from:
• the measurement points (Figure 18)
• the package thermal resistance
• the electrical power
• the illumination heat load
The relationship between array temperature and the reference ceramic temperature (thermal test point TP1 in
Figure 18) is provided by the following equations:
TARRAY = T CERAMIC + (QARRAY × RARRAY-TO-CERAMIC)
QARRAY = QELECTRICAL + (0.42 x QINCIDENT )
where
•
•
•
•
•
•
TARRAY = computed array temperature (°C)
TCERAMIC = measured ceramic temperature (°C) (TP1 location)
RARRAY-TO-CERAMIC = thermal resistance of DMD package (specified in Thermal Information) from array to
ceramic TP1 (°C/W)
QARRAY = total power (electrical + absorbed) on the array (Watts)
QELECTRICAL = nominal electrical power (Watts)
QINCIDENT = total incident optical power on DMD (Watts)
The electrical power dissipation of the DMD is variable and depends on the voltages, data rates, and operating
frequencies. A nominal electrical power dissipation to use when calculating array temperature is 4.4 watts. The
absorbed power from the illumination source is variable and depends on the operating state of the micromirrors
and the intensity of the light source. The equations shown above are valid for each DMD chip in a system. It
assumes an illumination distribution of 83.7% on the active array and 16.3% on the array border.

TCeramic = 20°C (measured)
ILLDENSITY = 11 Watts per cm2 (optical power on DMD per unit area) (measured)
Overfill = 16.3% (optical design)
QELECTRICAL = 2.0 Watts
RARRAY-TO-CERAMIC = 0.9 °C/W
Area of array = ( 1.4008 cm x 1.0506 cm ) = 1.4717 cm2
ILLAREA = 1.4717 cm2 / (83.7%) = 1.7583 cm2
QINCIDENT =11 W/cm2 x 1.7583 cm2 = 19.34 W
QARRAY = 2.0 W + (0.42 x 19.34 W) = 10.12 W
TARRAY = 20°C + (10.12 W x 0.9 °C) = 29.11 °C
8.7 Micromirror Landed-On/Landed-Off Duty Cycle
8.7.1 Definition of Micromirror Landed-On/Landed-Off Duty Cycle
The micromirror landed-on/landed-off duty cycle (landed duty cycle) denotes the amount of time (as a
percentage) that an individual micromirror is landed in the On–state versus the amount of time the same
micromirror is landed in the Off–state.
As an example, a landed duty cycle of 100/0 indicates that the referenced pixel is in the On-state 100% of the
time (and in the Off-state 0% of the time); whereas 0/100 would indicate that the pixel is in the Off-state 100% of
the time. Likewise, 50/50 indicates that the pixel is On 50% of the time and Off 50% of the time.
Note that when assessing landed duty cycle, the time spent switching from one state (ON or OFF) to the other
state (OFF or ON) is considered negligible and is thus ignored.
Since a micromirror can only be landed in one state or the other (On or Off), the two numbers (percentages)
always add to 100.

Micromirror Landed-On/Landed-Off Duty Cycle (continued)
8.7.2 Landed Duty Cycle and Useful Life of the DMD
Knowing the long-term average landed duty cycle (of the end product or application) is important because
subjecting all (or a portion) of the DMD’s micromirror array (also called the active array) to an asymmetric landed
duty cycle for a prolonged period of time can reduce the DMD’s usable life.
Note that it is the symmetry/asymmetry of the landed duty cycle that is of relevance. The symmetry of the landed
duty cycle is determined by how close the two numbers (percentages) are to being equal. For example, a landed
duty cycle of 50/50 is perfectly symmetrical whereas a landed duty cycle of 100/0 or 0/100 is perfectly
asymmetrical.
8.7.3 Landed Duty Cycle and Operational DMD Temperature
Operational DMD Temperature and Landed Duty Cycle interact to affect the DMD’s usable life, and this
interaction can be exploited to reduce the impact that an asymmetrical Landed Duty Cycle has on the DMD’s
usable life. This is quantified in the de-rating curve shown in Figure 1. The importance of this curve is that:
• All points along this curve represent the same usable life.
• All points above this curve represent lower usable life (and the further away from the curve, the lower the
usable life).
• All points below this curve represent higher usable life (and the further away from the curve, the higher the
usable life).
In practice, this curve specifies the Maximum Operating DMD Temperature that the DMD should be operated at
for a give long-term average Landed Duty Cycle.
8.7.4 Estimating the Long-Term Average Landed Duty Cycle of a Product or Application
During a given period of time, the Landed Duty Cycle of a given pixel follows from the image content being
displayed by that pixel.
For example, in the simplest case, when displaying pure-white on a given pixel for a given time period, that pixel
will experience a 100/0 Landed Duty Cycle during that time period. Likewise, when displaying pure-black, the
pixel will experience a 0/100 Landed Duty Cycle.
Between the two extremes (ignoring for the moment color and any image processing that may be applied to an
incoming image), the Landed Duty Cycle tracks one-to-one with the gray scale value, as shown in Table 5.

Accounting for color rendition (but still ignoring image processing) requires knowing both the color intensity (from
0% to 100%) for each constituent primary color (red, green, and/or blue) for the given pixel as well as the color
cycle time for each primary color, where “color cycle time” is the total percentage of the frame time that a given
primary must be displayed in order to achieve the desired white point.
During a given period of time, the landed duty cycle of a given pixel can be calculated as follows:
Landed Duty Cycle = (Red_Cycle_% × Red_Scale_Value) + (Green_Cycle_% × Green_Scale_Value) + (Blue_Cycle_%

Red_Cycle_%, Green_Cycle_%, and Blue_Cycle_%, represent the percentage of the frame time that Red,
Green, and Blue are displayed (respectively) to achieve the desired white point.

For example, assume that the red, green and blue color cycle times are 50%, 20%, and 30% respectively (in
order to achieve the desired white point), then the Landed Duty Cycle for various combinations of red, green,

9 Application and Implementation
NOTE
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.
9.1 Application Information
The DLP7000 devices require they be coupled with the DLPC410 controller to provide a reliable solution for
many different applications. The DMDs are spatial light modulators which reflect incoming light from an
illumination source to one of two directions, with the primary direction being into a projection collection optic.
Each application is derived primarily from the optical architecture of the system and the format of the data
coming into the DLPC410. Applications of interest include 3D measurement systems, lithography, medical
systems, and compressive sensing.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
10.1 DMD Power-Up and Power-Down Procedures
Repeated failure to adhere to the prescribed power-up and power-down procedures may affect device reliability.
The DLP7000 power-up and power-down procedures are defined by the DLPC410 data sheet (DLPS024). These
procedures must be followed to ensure reliable operation of the device.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The DLP7000 is part of a chipset that is controlled by the DLPC410 in conjunction with the DLPA200. These
guidelines are targeted at designing a PCB board with these components.
A target impedance of 50 Ω for single ended signals and 100 Ω between LVDS signals is specified for all signal
layers.
11.1.1 Impedance Requirements
Signals should be routed to have a matched impedance of 50 Ω ±10% except for LVDS differential pairs
(DMD_DAT_Xnn, DMD_DCKL_Xn, and DMD_SCTRL_Xn), which should be matched to 100 Ω ±10% across
each pair.
11.1.2 PCB Signal Routing
When designing a PCB for the DLP7000 controlled by the DLPC410 in conjunction with the DLPA200, the
following are recommended:
Signal trace corners should be no sharper than 45°. Adjacent signal layers should have the predominate traces
routed orthogonal to each other. TI recommends that critical signals be hand routed in the following order: DDR2
Memory, DMD (LVDS signals), then DLPA200 signals.
TI does not recommend signal routing on power or ground planes.
TI does not recommend ground plane slots.
High speed signal traces should not cross over slots in adjacent power and/or ground planes.
