For a complete DLP system, an optical module or light engine is required that contains the DLP651NE DMD, associated illumination sources, optical elements, and necessary mechanical components.

To ensure reliable operation, the DMD must always be used with DLPC7540 display controller and the TPS65145 PMIC and DLPA100. Refer to the DMD board reference design and DLPC7540 reference design for layout and design recommendations.
