256 PALETTE USAGE (TFT)
Palette Configuration and Format Control
The SC32442B provides 256 color palette for TFT LCD Control.
The user can select 256 colors from the 64K colors in these two formats.
The 256 color palette consists of the 256 (depth) x 16-bit SPSRAM. The palette supports 5:6:5 (R:G:B) format and
5:5:5:1(R:G:B:I) format.
When the user uses 5:5:5:1 format, the intensity data(I) is used as a common LSB bit of each RGB data. So,
5:5:5:1 format is the same as R(5+I):G(5+I):B(5+I) format.
In 5:5:5:1 format, for example, the user can write the palette as in Table 15-5 and then connect VD pin to TFT
LCD panel(R(5+I)=VD[23:19]+VD[18], VD[10] or VD[2], G(5+I)=VD[15:11]+ VD[18], VD[10] or VD[2],
B(5+I)=VD[7:3]+ VD[18], VD[10] or VD[2].), and set FRM565 of LCDCON5 register to 0.
