DS002AKA Single-Panel Liquid Crystal Optical Engine for Rear Projectors Preliminary For the availability of this product, please contact the sales office. Description The DS002AKA is a single-panel liquid crystal optical engine for use in rear projectors, capable of full-color displays without color filters (CF). Up/down and/or right/left inversion functions accommodate various mounting methods. Short projection distances are made possible through the adoption of ultra-wide angle lenses. In addition, a projection lens floating mechanism delivers 27" to 55" projected images with minimal image distortion. A high intensity discharge (HID) lamp ensures high luminance and low power consumption.

For details of the LCD panel operation, please refer to the LCX019AM specifications.

Contrast ratio Contrast ratio (CR) is given by the following formula. L(White): Surface illuminance of the screen at the input signal amplitude VAC = 0.5V L(Black): Surface illuminance of the screen at VAC = 4.5V Both luminances are measured by System I. CR = L (White) L (Black) 2. Luminous flux In measurement system I, the average of the luminance at the nine points specified in ANSI standards when the input signal amplitude VAC is 0.5V, multiplied by the effective display area, is computed. L = average illuminance at nine ANSI points (lm/m2) × effective display area (m2) H/3 H/3 H/3 V/3 V V/3 V/3 nine ANSI points: centers of each of the areas obtained by dividing the effective display area into nine smaller areas H 3. Chromaticity Raster modes of each color are defined by the representations at the input signal amplitude conditions shown in the table below. System I uses chromaticity of x and y on the CIE standards here.

Color uniformity In the measurement system I, the maximum values of the CIE color differences at the three points in the middle row of the nine ANSI points, measured at an input signal amplitude VAC of 0.5V, are used to compute the color uniformity. ∆Wx = x max – x min ∆Wy = y max – y min For other electro-optical characteristics, refer to the LCX019AM specifications. –6– DS002AKA Optical Characteristics The optical performance is specified for the following projection conditions.

Floating mechanism The floating mechanism corrects for distortion between 27" to 55". At time of shipment, it is optimized for a diagonal of 40" (including 4.5% overscan), but the floating mechanism should be adjusted if the projection size is different and image distortion becomes prominent. Recommended values for different projection sizes are given below, but adjustments should be made such that image distortion is minimized.

However, the set should be designed for enough ventilation and convection to ensure sufficient cooling. 2) The lamp should under no circumstances be lit while the cooling DC fans are not operating. The cooling DC fans are provided with sensor output pins to detect operation, and the lamp driver is provided with start control input pins. The set should be designed so that if the cooling fans are not operating, the lamp driver does not operate. 3) When using a dust filter with ventilation orifices, reduced ventilation due to filter clogging can cause rises in temperature, possibly damaging the LCD or other components. The temperature of the optical engine should be controlled, and filters should be changed as appropriate. (2) Lamp unit 1) In order to prevent burns and other accidents, do not directly touch the lamp housing while the lamp is lit or immediately after it has been extinguished. 2) Because of the extremely high focusing power of the ellipsoid reflector, if it is not installed in the specified position, damage to the engine or other problems may arise. Ensure that, if the lamp housing is not mounted in the specified position when changing the lamp, the lamp power supply will not operate. 3) Always use the included lamp driver to light the lamp. If the lamp is turned on and off repeatedly in short cycles, the lamp lifetime will be shortened. 4) The lamp is designed to be lit in a horizontal position. Ensure that the optical axis of the ellipsoid reflector is within ±20° of horizontal. 5) The lamp emits ultraviolet rays while lit and immediately after being extinguished. Be sure not to look directly at the lamp. (3) Protection from dust and dirt Image quality is significantly degraded by dust in the optical engine. Employ a set construction such that after dust is removed by a filter or other means during air cooling, air is blown into the optical engine. 1) Operate in clean environment. 2) Do not touch the surface of a projection lens and polarizer. The surfaces are easily scratched. When cleaning, use a clean-room wiper with isopropyl alcohol. Be careful not to leave stains on the surface. 3) Use ionized air to blow off dust at an optical engine. (4) Static charge prevention 1) Use non-chargeable gloves, or simply use bare hands. 2) Do not touch any electrodes. 3) Wear non-chargeable clothes and conductive shoes. 4) Keep optical engines away from any charged materials. 5) Use ionized air or some other means to discharge. – 10 – DS002AKA (5) Other handling precautions 1) The DM angles of this optical engine are adjusted to their optimal values, and should not be changed. 2) Do not remove or take apart the engine cover, projection lens, projection lens mount, relay lens, integrator support, or lamp housing. 3) Light emitted from the lamp and from the projection lens may harm the eyes. Do not look directly into the light from the lamp or lens. 4) Do not drop an optical engine. 5) Do not twist or bend an optical engine. 6) Keep an optical engine away from heat source. 7) Do not dampen an optical engine with water or other solvents. 8) Avoid to store or to use an optical engine in high temperature or in high humidity, which may result in optical engine damages. – 11 – Package Outline (lamp ballast unit) 5.0 ± 0.2 22.2 101.8 31.1 118 ± 0.2 – 12 – 5.2 (CB1) 5.0 ± 0.2 3.3 (CB2,CB3) Unit: mm 150 ± 0.2 5.0 ± 0.2 280 ± 5 DS002AKA 4-φ4.0 +0.2 0 5.0 ± 0.2 4.0 max. 1.6 ± 0.14 +2 25 0 0.05 + 0.4 2.0 – 3° 65. 50.0 ± 0.3 5 5.5 ±0 .5 66.0 ± 0.5 47.1 ± 0.3 35.3 ± 0.3 84.2 ± 0.5 67.2 ± 0.5 52.5 ± 0.5 59.2 ± 0.5 0 + 0.1 100.0 ± 0.5 φ4.0H9 8-φ5.0 AA AA 15.0 ± 0.1 15.0 ± 0.1 3-φ4.8 ± 0.1 5.0 15.0 349.6 ± 1.0 281.8 ± 0.4 ± 0.4 128.0 A ± 0.5 120.0 ± 0.15 143.2 ± 0.25 2-R2.3 Precision of PWB holder holes ± 0.4 (X4) 20.0 ± 0.1 76.6 ± 0.5 65.1 ± 0.5 100 ± 0.5 (60.0) ± 0.4 ± 0.4 68.0 ± 0.4 115.0 (11.6) 60.0 91.1 ± 0.35 ± 0.15 128.0 ± 0.25 177.5 ± 0.25 299.1 ± 0.35 6-φ2.4 ± 0.02C0.3,Depth 8.0 103.7 ± 0.2 ± 0.5 53.6 223.1(226.1)(220.1) ± 1.0 52.0 ± 0.5 ± 0.5 ± 0.3 50.0 136.4 ± 0.5 68.34 ± 2.5 6-φ7.0Height 7.0, Precision of boss position ± 0.4 50.0 ± 0.3 90.0 ± 0.15 (7.0) 58.2 ± 0.5 (66.0) 115.0 ± 0.4 37.2 ± 0.3 124.6 (61.6) 10.0 ± 0.2 4.0H9 (Center of position hole - Surface of 1st lens) 531mm from the screen 63.1 ± 0.5 – 13 – 26.0 ± 0.3 53.1 ± 0.5 152.7 ± 0.3 493.4 ± 1.5 125.0 ± 0.4 401.6 ± 1.0 180.0 ± 0.4 (Center of boss) Unit: mm 165.0 ± 0.4 180.0 ± 0.25(Center of base hole) Package Outline (optical engine unit) DS002AKA
