11.7.1 Passive Monochrome Panels
Passive monochrome displays can be supported for graphics depths of 8 BPP
(256 entry palette), 4 BPP, 2 BPP, or 1 BPP. For passive monochrome displays,
four signals are supplied. Each signal represents one pixel that is dithered over
successive frames to achieve a maximum of 15 gray levels (see Table 11–4).

11.7.2 Passive Color (STN) Panels
Passive color displays can be supported for palletized graphics depths of 2
BPP, 4 BPP, and 8 BPP (256 color palette), as well as direct graphics depths
of 12 BPP and 16 BPP. For passive color displays, eight signals are supplied.
Each signal represents one color channel of one pixel that is dithered over
successive frames to achieve a maximum of 15 shade levels per color (for a
total of 15x15x15=3375 colors). This means that each set of eight signals
represents 2 2/3 pixels (8 signals/3 colors per pixel). Table 11–5 shows the
relationship of these signals to the color channel and pixel position on screen.
