I'm not talking about a reduction in color from 24 bit to 16 (plus another channel, I know). I'm talking about 16 bit luminance values such that color setting that would take advantage of a ...

While adding more features may necessitate more connections and larger packaging, 8-bit MCUs with sufficient capability can fit into board spaces that prohibit the use of 16- or 32-bit MCUs.

Modern embedded designs require a wide range of capabilities, including low power support, high performance/throughput, function-rich peripherals, ...
