Patent Images

1. A micromirror device for applying a digital image data to display an image comprising:

  • a plurality of pixel elements arranged in a form of an array and grouped into B subsets each including pixel elements configured as Ms columns and Ns rows represented by Ms (COLUMNs)×

    Ns (ROWs) wherein-Ms, Ns and B are positive integers;

    each of said pixel elements has a mirror, and at least one memory cell to pulse width modulate (PWM) an incident light;

    the memory cell has a transistor of an input gate capacity Ct[F];

    each memory cell is connected by a ROW line having a wiring resistance R[106 ], and a wiring capacity C[F]; and

    wherein the parameters represented byMs, Ns, B, Ct, R, C, and a number of colors represented by C0 have a relationship of R*(Ct+C)<

    (1.63*10

    5
    *B)/[Co*Ms*Ns*(Ms+1)], when a gray scale display of 10 bits or more for each color is presented with a color sequential display of C0 colors.
