Description

 

 

 

 

7:0

Palette Read Index. The 8-bit index value programmed into this register chooses which of 256 standard

 

 

color data positions within the palette (or which of 8 alternate color data positions, depending on the

 

 

state of a bit in the Pixel Pipeline Control 0 Register) are to be made accessible for being read via the

 

 

Palette Data Register (DACDATA). The index value held in this register is automatically incremented

 

 

when all three bytes of the color data position selected by the current index have been read.
