* On a TFT panel the effective colors are determined by the interface width. (i.e. 9-bit=512, 12-bit=4096, 18-bit=64K
colors) Passive panels are limited to 12-bits (4096) through the frame rate modulator.
Programming Notes and Examples
Issue Date: 01/02/01
• The Look-Up Table (LUT) 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; a pixel value of 7
would point to the eighth LUT entry.
• The value inside each LUT entry represents the intensity of the given color or gray shade. This
value ranges between 0 and 0Fh.
• The S1D13504 LUT is linear; increasing the LUT number results in a lighter color or gray shade.
For example, a LUT entry of 0Fh into the red Look-Up entry will always result in a bright red
output.
