raster scan frame buffer prob
hi,
i have a problem,
A raster scan display has a resolution of 1024 x 1326 and a 16-bit color depth
calculate the number of bitplanes and the size of the frame buffer required for this display.
can anyone tell me how to solve this problem.
how can i find the size of the frame buffer.
thank u.
There would be 16 bitplanes per row, for total of 21216. Each byte in a bitplane can hold 8 pixels, so we divide 1024 by 8, getting 128. 128 times 21216 is 2715648, which is how many bytes you'll need for your framebuffer.
Why do I feel like I'm doing someone elses homework?
I'm curious why anyone would use bitplanes for 16-bit colour, though. 16 colours (aka, 4-bit) would seem a whole lot more likely.
