List of Monochrome and RGB Palettes - Non-regular RGB Palettes - 3-3-2 Bit RGB

3-3-2 Bit RGB

The 3-3-2 bit RGB use 3 bits for each of the red and green color components, and 2 bits for the blue component, due to the lesser sensitivity of the normal human eye to this primary color. This results in a 8×8×4 = 256-color palette as follows:

This palette is used by

  • The MSX2 series of personal computers.
  • Palette 4 of the IBM PGC (palette 2 gives 2-3-3 bit RGB and palette 3 gives 3-2-3 bit RGB).
  • VGA built-in output of the Digilent Inc. NEXYS 2 and BASYS2 FPGA boards.
  • The Uzebox gaming console
