The increment length is ~0.0353 dB/step.

One-push white balance

The camera automatically generates frames, based on the current settings of all
registers (GAIN, OFFSET, SHUTTER, etc.).

For white balance, in total 9 frames are processed. For the white balance algo-
rithm the whole image or a subset of it is used. The R-G-B component values of
the samples are added and are used as actual values for the one-push white
balance
.

Note

While lowering both U/B and V/R registers from 284 towards 0,
the lower one of the two effectively controls the green gain.
