Pixel stream assembly for raster operations

Systems and methods for converting graphics data represented in a hexadecimal form into a quad form may be used to reorganize the graphics data for performing raster operations. Prior to performing raster operations the graphics data received for each component is assembled to interleave the components for each pixel as needed to perform the raster operations. The assembly process varies depending on the number of bits per component, the number of components to be processed, and the memory format of the render target used to store the processed graphics data.
