How DLP Works
In general, DLP combines microscopic mirrors, a specially
designed semiconductor, and a color wheel to adjust light to
display the most brilliant, accurate images! Your DLP HDTV
doesn't use Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs), which means you don't
have to worry about screen burn (fixed video images burning
onto the screen permanently) or convergence (realigning the
CRTs). The diagram on the left illustrates the complex system.
Thin and Light
The efficiency of DLP technology enabled our design team to
create a high-performance HDTV that is about 16 inches thin and
weighs less than 100 pounds.
Lamp Replacement
DLP technology uses a special lamp. Eventually, you'll need to
replace this lamp, which you can do yourself by following the
replacement instructions on page 55. To order the correct lamp,
you'll need to know your TV's model number, serial number,
and lamp type—this information is listed on the Service Model
Number sticker (example of the sticker is shown on the left).
The sticker is located on the right side of the TV. The lamp type
can also be found in the TV's Display options menu. Go to page
47 for more information. For future reference, write down the
information in the space provided at the left.
