Abstract
An apparatus and a method for cooling a digital micromirror device are disclosed. For example, the apparatus includes a digital micromirror device (DMD), a housing coupled to the DMD, wherein a first side of the housing is coupled to a bottom of the DMD and a cooling block coupled to a second side of the housing that is opposite the first side. The cooling block includes a plate that includes a plurality of openings, a diaphragm coupled to the plate, an air inlet to generate an airflow across the plate, wherein the diaphragm creates a force to move the airflow in a direction that is perpendicular to a direction of the airflow towards the second side of the housing, and an air outlet to collect the airflow.
