Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) has launched a new display controller to enable the smallest, fastest and lowest-power 4K ultra-high-definition (UHD) projectors ever.

Measuring just 9-by-9mm, or the width of a pencil eraser, TI’s DLPC8445 display controller is the smallest of its kind while enabling a diagonal display of 100in or more in vivid image quality with ultra-low latency. When combined with TI’s compatible digital micromirror device (DMD), the DLP472TP, and power-management integrated circuit (PMIC) with LED driver, the DLPA3085, TI’s new controller enables designers to replicate the display experiences of high-end televisions and gaming monitors in the form of a compact projector.

Lifestyle and gaming projectors are growing in popularity as consumers seek immersive experiences with their content, from movies and games to TV shows. With TI’s new DLPC8445 controller and DLP472TP DMD, designers can deliver displays that achieve submillisecond display latency, matching or exceeding the world’s most high-end gaming monitors and reducing lag time for gamers.

Integration of variable refresh rate (VRR) support, a first for a DLP chipset, will enable better displays for gamers by allowing designers to easily sync frame rates and eliminate lagging, image tearing and stuttering. Advanced image-correction capabilities dynamically adjust for surface imperfections, making it possible for consumers to conveniently take their gaming and viewing experience anywhere. It is also the first DLP controller designed for laser-illuminated battery-powered projectors.
