Hi

I have a simple question

if there is an odd hexadecimal number

53'h70018_00001A1E

What will be binary value ? how do you account for 53rd bit ? Please confirm

Thanks,
 

Hi,

Can you explain it little bit more ?
Normally for a one-digit of Hexa-value need 4bits in binary;
if binary-number has odd number of bits (like 53 ?) zeros are added to front, until it can be fully chopped in to 4bit chunks. (in case of 53bits 3 zeros should be added to front).
Is this what you asked ?

Thanks,
