| - | Three Hue bits encode eight different colors that can be selected. In order these are Green, | + | Three Hue bits encode eight different colors that can be selected. In order these are Yellow, Orange, Red, Magenta, Violet, Blue, Cyan, and Green. Each of these selections represents a different phase offset of the NTSC color carrier. |
| Two Saturation bits control the amplitude of the color carrier signal, which results in four possible color intensities. Setting saturation to zero eliminates the color carrier, resulting in a shade of black, gray, or white. Colors with different hues, zero saturation, and the same Luminosity will be identical. | Two Saturation bits control the amplitude of the color carrier signal, which results in four possible color intensities.

| Three Luminosity bits control the brightness of a color by determining the low frequency voltage component of the video signal. Higher numbers tend towards white while lower numbers tend towards black. | Three Luminosity bits control the brightness of a color by determining the low frequency voltage component of the video signal.
