First programmable DLP MEMS chipset empowers NIR analysis

The expanded DLP chipset, consisting of the DLP2010NIR digital micromirror device (DMD), DLPA2005 integrated power management, and DLPC150 controller, features programmable high-speed patterns and the latest high-tilt 5.4-μm pixel size for use in compact optical designs. The near-infrared (NIR) chipset portfolio enables mobile analysis for a 700 to 2,500 nm wavelength range.

The DLP2010NIR DMD DLP chip and is designed for handheld NIR sensing applications, including spectrometers and chemical analyzers. Application areas include farming, food and drink, petrochemical, health, and skin care industries. When the chipset is paired with the Bluetooth and Bluetooth low energy-enabled DLP NIRscan nano evaluation module, designers can prototype portable analyzers to accelerate the development of ultramobile spectrometers. The DLP2010NIR and DLPC150 will be available in April 2015 and the DLP NIRscan Nano EVM will be available in spring 2015.
