(2) The white signal is generated from the internal IC.
(3) Change only the step that are requested to change.
For customer request, it is possible to adjust RGB signal amplitude (means adjust the
gamma correction curve) each signal level (No.1_No.32).
If customer require to change the white balance of LCD PTV, we should re-adjust gamma
correction curve.
