oh, I didn't catch that you wanted use linear interpolation for that
table too, that table is directly the output of the CIE 1931
algorithm. And yes 1024 step looks like lots of steps but based on
the tests 1024 steps for a 16 bit resolution PWM is reasonable, I
guess (though it's a personal perception and opinion as I don't know
how to calculate the number of really needed steps).
