## Detailed Description

Support for the Color GameBoy (CGB).

Enabling CGB features

To unlock and use CGB features and registers you need to change byte 0143h in the cartridge header. Otherwise, the CGB will operate in monochrome "Non CGB" compatibility mode.

- Use a value of 80h for games that support CGB and monochrome gameboys
  (with Lcc: -Wm-yc, or makebin directly: -yc)
- Use a value of C0h for CGB only games.
  (with Lcc: -Wm-yC, or makebin directly: -yC)

See the Pan Docs for more information CGB features.

## Macro Definition Documentation

## RGB

#define RGB | ( |  | r,
|  |  | g,
|  |  | b
| ) |  | ((uint16_t)((((b) & 0x1f) << 10) | ((uint16_t)(((g) & 0x1f) << 5)) | ((r) & 0x1f)))

Macro to create a CGB palette color entry out of 5-bit color components.

Parameters

  r | 5-bit Red Component, range 0 - 31 (31 brightest)
  g | 5-bit Green Component, range 0 - 31 (31 brightest)
  b | 5-bit Blue Component, range 0 - 31 (31 brightest)

The resulting format is bitpacked BGR-555 in a uint16_t.

  set_bkg_palette(), set_sprite_palette(), RGB8(), RGBHTML()

## RGB8

#define RGB8 | ( |  | r,
|  |  | g,
|  |  | b
| ) |  | (((uint16_t)((((b) >> 3) & 0x1f) << 10)) | ((uint16_t)((((g) >> 3) & 0x1f) << 5)) | (((r) >> 3) & 0x1f))

Macro to create a CGB palette color entry out of 8-bit color components.

Parameters

  r | 8-bit Red Component, range 0 - 255 (255 brightest)
  g | 8-bit Green Component, range 0 - 255 (255 brightest)
  b | 8-bit Blue Component, range 0 - 255 (255 brightest)

The resulting format is bitpacked BGR-555 in a uint16_t.

The lowest 3 bits of each color component are dropped during conversion.

## RGBHTML

#define RGBHTML | ( |  | RGB24bit | ) | (RGB8((((RGB24bit) >> 16) & 0xff), (((RGB24bit) >> 8) & 0xff), ((RGB24bit) & 0xff)))

Macro to convert a 24 Bit RGB color to a CGB palette color entry.

Parameters

  RGB24bit | Bit packed RGB-888 color (0-255 for each color component).

The resulting format is bitpacked BGR-555 in a uint16_t.

The lowest 3 bits of each color component are dropped during conversion.

## Function Documentation

## set_bkg_palette()

void set_bkg_palette | ( | uint8_t | first_palette,
|  | uint8_t | nb_palettes,
|  | const palette_color_t * | rgb_data
| ) |  |

Set CGB background palette(s).

Parameters

  first_palette | Index of the first palette to write (0-7)
  nb_palettes | Number of palettes to write (1-8, max depends on first_palette)
  rgb_data | Pointer to source palette data

Writes nb_palettes to background palette data starting at first_palette, Palette data is sourced from rgb_data.

- Each Palette is 8 bytes in size: 4 colors x 2 bytes per palette color entry.
- Each color (4 per palette) is packed as BGR-555 format (1:5:5:5, MSBit [15] is unused).
- Each component (R, G, B) may have values from 0 - 31 (5 bits), 31 is brightest.

## set_sprite_palette()

void set_sprite_palette | ( | uint8_t | first_palette,
|  | uint8_t | nb_palettes,
|  | const palette_color_t * | rgb_data
| ) |  |

Set CGB sprite palette(s).

Parameters

  first_palette | Index of the first palette to write (0-7)
  nb_palettes | Number of palettes to write (1-8, max depends on first_palette)
  rgb_data | Pointer to source palette data

Writes nb_palettes to sprite palette data starting at first_palette, Palette data is sourced from rgb_data.

- Each Palette is 8 bytes in size: 4 colors x 2 bytes per palette color entry.
- Each color (4 per palette) is packed as BGR-555 format (1:5:5:5, MSBit [15] is unused).

## cpu_slow()

void cpu_slow | ( | void |  | ) |

Set CPU speed to slow (Normal Speed) operation.

Interrupts are temporarily disabled and then re-enabled during this call.

In this mode the CGB operates at the same speed as the DMG/Pocket/SGB models.

- You can check to see if _cpu == CGB_TYPE before using this function.

See also
  cpu_fast()

## cpu_fast()

void cpu_fast | ( | void |  | ) |

inline

Set CPU speed to fast (CGB Double Speed) operation.

On startup the CGB operates in Normal Speed Mode and can be switched into Double speed mode (faster processing but also higher power consumption). See the Pan Docs for more information about which hardware features operate faster and which remain at Normal Speed.

- Interrupts are temporarily disabled and then re-enabled during this call.
- You can check to see if _cpu == CGB_TYPE before using this function.

See also
  cpu_slow(), _cpu

## set_default_palette()

void set_default_palette | ( | void |  | ) |

Sets CGB palette 0 to be compatible with the DMG/GBP.

The default/first CGB palettes for sprites and backgrounds are set to a similar default appearance as on the DMG/Pocket/SGB models. (White, Light Gray, Dark Gray, Black)

- You can check to see if _cpu == CGB_TYPE before using this function.

## cgb_compatibility()

void cgb_compatibility | ( | void |  | ) |

inline

Obsolete. This function has been replaced by set_default_palette(), which has identical behavior.
