Colors

[s-celles]

Using a library to manage 2 bytes (16 bits) colors might be considered

Here is a schema for such colors representation (aka RGB565)

1        |1          |        0
5 4 3 2 1|0 9 8 7 6 5|4 3 2 1 0 
---------|-----------|---------
R R R R R|G G G G G G|B B B B B

• 5 bits for red channel - 32 values

• 6 bis for green channel - 64 values (green gets an extra bit because it's the main element of luminance)

• 5 bits for blue channel - 32 values

Name	R	G	B	value
BLACK	0	0	0	0
WHITE	31	63	31	65535
RED	31	0	0	63488
GREEN	0	63	0	2016
BLUE	0	0	31	31
GRAY	16	33	16	33840
BROWN	23	34	0	48192
YELLOW	31	63	0	65504
