4.2 Look-Up Table Organization
• The Look-Up Table treats the value of a pixel as an index into an array of colors or gray
shades. For example, a pixel value of zero would point to the first LUT entry, whereas a
pixel value of seven would point to the eighth LUT entry.
• The value contained in each LUT entry represents the intensity of the given color or
gray shade. This intensity can range in value between 0 and 0Fh.
• The S1D13706 Look-Up Table is linear. This means increasing the LUT entry number
results in a lighter color or gray shade. For example, a LUT entry of 0Fh in the red bank
results in bright red output while a LUT entry of 05h results in dull red.
