DLPDLCR660TEVM and DLPLCRDC4422EVM Overview

1.1

Welcome

The DLP Products DLPDLCR660TEVM and DLPLCRDC4422EVM evaluation modules (EVMs) offer a
reference design to enable faster development cycles for users of the DLPC4422 chips and allow
evaluation of TI’s DLP660TE UHD chipset.

These evaluation kits bring together a set of components providing a great starting point to evaluate a
UHD DLP system for:

Laser TV

Enterprise Projectors

Digital Signage

Gaming Machines

Smart Projectors

State Lighting Systems

1.2

What is in the DLPDLCR660TEVM and DLPLCRDC4422EVM Evaluation Modules (EVMs)?

The DLPDLCR660TEVM and DLPLCRDC4422EVM are designed to be used together. In fact, one cannot
be operated without the other.

The DLPDLCR660TEVM, which includes the DLP660TE display chip, includes the two flex cables
required to connect the DLPDLCR660TEVM to the DLPLCRDC4422EVM. DLPLCRDC4422EVM includes
all circuitry required to drive the DLP660TE display chip.

The DLPLCRDC4422EVM, which includes two DLPC4422 controllers in master-slave mode, two
DLPA100s which serve as the power management and motor drivers, and other system circuitry such as
the Vx1 receiver and system fan control.

The DLPLCRDC4422EVM can be programmed with the DLP660TE firmware which is available on the
DLPC4422 product page. This firmware allows the DLPLCRDC4422EVM to drive the DLP660TE chip.

Figure 1-2

show the top side of each EVM.

NOTE:

Figure 1-2

does not show the necessary flex cables needed to pair to DLPLCRDC4422EVM.
