Texas Instruments DLP160AP 0.16 QnHD DLP® Digital Micromirror Device

Texas Instruments DLP160AP 0.16" QnHD DLP® DMD is a digitally controlled micro-opto-electromechanical system (MOEMS) spatial light modulator (SLM). The DLP160AP digital micromirror device (DMD) combined with an appropriate optical system displays a crisp and high-quality image or video.

The TI DLP160AP is part of the DLP160AP DMD and DLPC3420 controller chipset. The DLPA2000 or DLPA2005 PMIC/LED driver also supports the chipset. The compact size of the DLP160AP is ideal for portable equipment where a small form factor and low power are essential. The DLP160AP DMD, combined with the controller and PMIC/LED driver, supplies a complete system solution that allows a small form factor, low power, and high image-quality displays.
