(2) The following power supplies are all required to operate the DMD: VDD, VDDI, VOFFSET, VBIAS, and VRESET. All VSS connections are also required.
(3) All voltage values are with respect to the ground pins (VSS).
(4) VOFFSET supply transients must fall within specified max voltages.
(5) To prevent excess current, the supply voltage delta |VDDI – VDD| must be less than the specified limit.
(6) To prevent excess current, the supply voltage delta |VBIAS – VOFFSET| must be less than the specified limit.
(7) To prevent excess current, the supply voltage delta |VBIAS – VRESET| must be less than the specified limit.
(8) LS_CLK must run as specified to ensure internal DMD timing for reset waveform commands.
(10) Simultaneous exposure of the DMD to the maximum Recommended Operating Conditions for temperature and UV illumination will reduce device lifetime.
(12) Per
Figure 1, the maximum operational array 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.
(13) Long-term is defined as the usable life of the device.
(14) Short-term is the total cumulative time over the useful life of the device.
(15) The maximum marginal ray angle of the incoming illumination light at any point in the micromirror array, including at the pond of micromirrors (POM), should not exceed 55 degrees from the normal to the device array plane. The device window aperture has not necessarily been designed to allow incoming light at higher maximum angles to pass to the micromirrors, and the device performance has not been tested nor qualified at angles exceeding this. Illumination light exceeding this angle outside the micromirror array (including POM) will contribute to thermal limitations described in this document and may negatively affect lifetime.
(16) Window temperature is the highest temperature on the window edge shown in
Figure 18. The location of thermal test point TP2 in
Figure 18 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, that point should be used.
(17) Temperature delta is the highest difference between the ceramic test point 1 (TP1) and anywhere on the window edge shown in
Figure 18. The window test point TP2 shown in
Figure 18 is intended to result in the worst case delta temperature. If a particular application causes another point on the window edge to result in a larger delta temperature, that point should be used.
(18) The average over time (including storage and operating) that the device is not in the 'elevated dew point temperature range'.
(19) Exposure to dew point temperatures in the elevated range during storage and operation should be limited to less than a total cumulative time of CTELR.
