would like to know whether three SYNC output can be used to receive the pulse signal. If the answer is ‘Yes’, are there any restrictions on the size of the frame rate? If the answer is ‘No’, which interface can be used to receive the pulse signal? Thank you! (The following paragraphs is the illustration about three SYNC output.)
Three (3) SYNC outputs are provided to enable the system to synchronize external systems or
components to the pattern being displayed on the DMD. For example, an application may desire to trigger an in system camera to capture and image after a certain pattern is projected from the DMD. In this case, one of the three output SYNCs can be configured to provide a pulsed signal just after the pattern is set on the DMD, thus enabling the camera to capture the projected DMD pattern. These outputs are programmable (delay, pulse width, polarity) via the DLPC200 API, and can be updated in real-time.

Hello Sasha,
Welcome to the DLP section of the TI-E2E Community.
These are strictly outputs and cannot be used to recieve an input trigger. However there is an input for a 1.8 V or 3.3 V input trigger. Please see the following posts for information:
You must provide a ground, input trigger and a voltage reference to the pins listed in the first post. The second post shows a picture of the system set up to recieve a 3.3 V trigger.
Typically many people want to trigger a camera from the LightCommander. In this case that is what the 3 Syncs are for.
