TI introduces most affordable way to get started with DLP® Pico™ display technology

Tiny form-factor chipset and $99 EVM make it easier to design new, ultra-compact display applications

DALLAS, Aug. 2, 2017 — (PRNewswire) — Texas Instruments (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) today, opened the door for developers to implement high-performing DLP display technology with virtually any low-cost processor. The new 0.2-inch DLP2000 chipset and $99 DLP® LightCrafter™ Display 2000 evaluation module (EVM) now make it more affordable to leverage DLP technology and design on-demand, free-form display applications such as mobile smart TVs; pico projectors; digital signage; projection displays for smart homes, smartphones and tablets; and control panels and Internet of Things (IoT) display solutions.
