Delta Row
Delta Row is a
compression mode that identifies and transmits only those bytes
different from the ones in a preceding row. The control byte consists of two parts:
•
High 3 bits: Number of bytes to replace +1 (1 to 8).
•
Low 5 bits: Offset from last unmodified byte (0-30); if the offset is 31, the next
byte(s) is added to the offset until the next byte is not 255.
Example:
