How DLP™ Works

In general, DLP™ combines microscopic mirrors, a specially designed semiconductor, and a color wheel to adjust light to display the most brilliant, accurate images! Your DLP™ HDTV doesn’t use Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs), which means you don’t have to worry about screen burn (fixed video images burning onto the screen permanently) or convergence (realigning the CRTs). The diagram on the left illustrates the complex system.

Thin and Light

The efficiency of DLP™ technology enabled our design team to create a high-performance HDTV that is about 16 inches thin and weighs less than 100 pounds.

Lamp Replacement

DLP technology uses a special lamp. Eventually, you’ll need to replace this lamp (part number 260962). To order a lamp, call 1-800-338-0376 or go to www.rca.com. For quick reference, write the date you purchased this TV and the model number here:

In terms of sound, the RCA HDLP50W151 incorporates a robust audio system that enhances the overall experience. Enhanced audio features work to produce clear dialogue and dynamic sound effects, complementing the high-quality visuals.
