  • Blog Post: October 28th, 2008 - Besides TVs and projectors, why DLP® Technology?

    JRT5595
    Hello and welcome to the new Texas Instruments DLP Discovery forum. Since joining DLP in 1995, I have had the opportunity to work on many projects using the DLP chip set including the first commercially available TV’s, break-through home theatre projectors; and of course many front projection products...

  • Blog Post: Reliability Is Not For Wimps! DLP® Chips can attest to that!

    Wizard
    What is reliability? There are many definitions that all discuss maintaining performance over time or some other boring set of words. But let’s talk about some real measures of reliability. The DLP® Chip, also known as the Digital Micromirror Device or DMD, was invented in 1987, started development...

    Wizard
    OK, admit it. How many of you had to look up the word “quintillion” to see what it is? I know I did the first time I used it. A quintillion is 10^18 (USA and Modern British). Way back last year, I wrote a blog about how reliable the DLP chip is. I mentioned one test that had been running...

  • Blog Post: Good Things Come in Small Packages – Why Small Can Be Better

    Wizard
    In previous blogs , I have discussed how long the DLP® Chip can operate but I am often asked about the environmental robustness of the DLP Chip, too. Here are a few sample questions: - The micromirrors are so small, are they fragile? - Will they break during normal handling and use? - Will mechanical...

    Madadayo
    Perhaps one of the most underrated features of the DLP ® Pico™ Projector Development Kit optical engine is something called “offset”. For some of us relics, this word “offset” reminds us of a printing process like that used to print currency. Our children and grandchildren...
