Description
®
The DLP
LightCrafter
(EVM) offers a reference design to enable faster
development of the DLPC964 controller architecture
in support of the DLP991U and DLP991UUV DMDs.
This platform receives high-speed bitplane data from
an external source through the AMD Aurora 64B/66B
interface and formats the bitplane data before loading
the data into a DLPLCR99EVM or DLPLCR99UVEVM
for display on the DLP991U or DLP991UUV DMD.
Get Started
1. To order the DLPLCRC964EVM, visit the
DLPLCRC964EVM Product
2. Refer to the
TI E2E DLP products forum
assistance.
