in a luminance chrominance data format for example the luminance chrominance data format can be ycbcr y u2032 cbcr or yuv other luminance chrominance data formats are possible in general the format represents the image using a luminance channel light intensity and two chrominance channels intensities of two colors relative to a third color in addition the bit depth of the luminance chrominance version of the interpolated data can be less than that of the raw data for example the bit depth can be 8 bits i e each pixel has each of its three channels represented by an 8 bit data value in some cases the chrominance channels can have a bit depth that is less than that of the luminance channel the first or second integrated circuit chips 140 145 can include circuitry that filters a chrominance component of the luminance chrominance data format version of the interpolated data this is done to suppress false color that is not eliminated within the demosaicking stage suppressing false color in this later stage in the isp when the data is at a lower bit depth can reduce the amount of circuitry needed and thus reduce costs of the device in some implementations the demosaicking stage need not attempt to eliminate false color artifacts at all rather relying on the false color suppression of the later stage the first or second integrated circuit chips 140 145 can also include circuitry that filters a luminance component of the luminance chrominance data format version of the interpolated data this is done to suppress isolated dots that can arise from the processing done in the demosaicking stage note that isolated dots can arise when the.
