Assume that a certain true color system has a resolution of 1200 x 1024 pixels. Determine the system’s frame buffer size.
True color system uses 24 bit / pixel to represent the color. Total number of pixel = Screen resolution = 1200 x 1024 = 12,28,800 pixels Each pixel takes 24 bit to represent the color, so total number of bits required to store display information = 12,28,800 x 24 = 2, 94, 91, 200 bits Size of frame buffer in Byte = 2,94,91,200 / 8 = 36,86,400 Bytes Size of frame buffer in KB = 36,86,400 / 1024 = 3,600 KB Size of frame buffer in MB = 3,600 / 1024 = 3.5156 MB
