1. What is DMD ?
DMD: Digital Micromirror Device
Beginning to be developed by sight change according to the movement of Rear
View Mirror
Number of moving parts - 0.5 (SVGA) to >1.3 (TBA)
million

landings
Lifetime - - - - - - - - - - - - - up to 100,000 hrs
Address voltage - - - - - - - 3.3-volt CMOS technology
Mechanical elements - - - - Aluminum
Process - - - - - - - - - - - - - Low temperature, sputter
deposition,
plasma etch (standard SC
processes)

1. What is DMD ?
Expressing light and shade by changes of selected light by path Mirror
Tilting
Expressing Gray level by times taken for path change
2. DLP Projector
Why should we choice DLP projector?
Image Quality
- Pixelization (fill factor)
DLP= Seamless, Filmlike
LCD= Grainy, Pixellated
DLP = large active area LCD = smaller active area
- Contrast Ratio
DLP= simple optics: easier light management
LCD= complex optics: more difficult light management
- Sharpness (color alignment)
DLP= no misalignment
LCD= misalignment likely over time
DLP
LCD
- Video Quality
DLP= fast switching: minimal lag (few s)
LCD= slow switching: significant lag (tens of ms) smearing for fast
moving video
2. DLP Projector
- Color Quality
DLP= can match any LCD color gamut
LCD= cant match any DLP color gamut
system
R,G,B Bandwidth is depend on each color because of non-sequential

- Smallest & Brightest

DLP= simple optical system,

2. DLP Projector
Repeatable Performance (digital accuracy)

DLP= digital: precise control, constant performance over time
LCD= analog: variable (affected by temperature, vibration, heat,
humidity),
deterioration over time
Reliable
- Superior thermal characteristics
DLP= reflects heat
LCD= absorbs heat, performance degrades
- LCD panel degrades as a function of both time and use
- DMDs have shown consistent robust performance over time with up to
100,000
hours lifetime

Brief Brightness Estimation

1) RGB Segment ( W=1, R:G:B Intensity= 1/3, R:G:B segment size= 1:1:1)
R = 1/3
G = B = 1/3
RGB size = 1/3 : Wo = R/3 + G/3 + B/3 =
0.333
2) RGB Segment ( W=1, R:G:B Intensity= 1/3, R:G:B:W segment size= 1:1:1:1)
R = 1/3
G = B = 1/3

Integrating Rod : Total size vs Hole Size ratio = 0.5
Total size Input vs Hole Input Intensity Ratio = 0.85
1) RGB Segment ( Wi=1, R:G:B Intensity= 1/3, R:G:B segment size= 1:1:1)
R = first transmission R(0.85*1/3) + G,B reflected MY of re-reflected
R(0.85*0.5*2/3*1/3*2)
= 0.472
G,B is same as above G=B= 0.472
RGB size = 1/3 Wo = R/3 + G/3 + B/3 =
0.472
2) RGB Segment ( W=1, R:G:B Intensity= 1/3, R:G:B:W segment size= 1:1:1:1)
R = first transmission R(0.85*1/3) + G,B reflected MY of re-reflected
R(0.85*0.5*2/4*1/3*2)
= 0.425
G,B is same as above G = B = 0.425
