frame buffer
A frame buffer is an area of computer memory that produces an
output picture, which can be viewed on a monitor.
A frame buffer consists of an array of pixels, short for “picture
elements.” Each pixel is assigned separate amounts of red, green,
blue and transparency, from 0 to 255.
The number of rows and columns of pixels determines the
resolution of the frame buffer. In NTSC, FXDeko’s frame buffer has
720 pixels in each of 486 rows. In PAL, it has 720 pixels in each of
576 rows.
