10*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  The unit can increase the physical color resolution of a display from 5, 6, 7
11*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  or 8 bits per RGB channel to a virtual resolution of 10 bits. The physical
12*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  resolution can be set individually for each channel.
13*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot
14*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  The resolution is increased by mixing the two physical colors that are nearest
15*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  to the virtual color code in a variable ratio either by time (temporal
16*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  dithering) or by position (spatial dithering).
17*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot
18*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  An optimized algorithm for temporal dithering minimizes noise artifacts on the
19*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  output image.
20*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot
21*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  The dither operation can be individually enabled or disabled for each pixel
22*833e5d42SEmmanuel Vadot  using the alpha input bit.
