RT117XBitmapConverter

Description

This document provides a complete list of bitmap formats supported by the RT117X target.

These formats define how pixel color and alpha data are stored in memory. The RT117X extended bitmap formats support alpha-only, RGB, and ARGB image formats, enabling a balance between memory usage, performance, and visual quality.

These bitmap converters are supported only on the target. Windows simulation uses the default bitmap converter.
