3.9.2 HEX (Hexadecimal)
(1) Hexadecimal notation
In hexadecimal notation, 4 binary bits are expressed in 1 digit.
If 4 binary bits are used in binary notation, 16 different values from 0 to 15 can be
represented.
Since hexadecimal notation represents 0 to 15 in 1 digit, letters A
H
to F
H
are used to
represent the numbers 10 to 15.
Then, a carry occurs after F
H
.
Table3.10 shows the numeric expressions of BIN, HEX and DEC (decimal).
(2) Hexadecimal numeric expression
CPU module registers (data registers, link registers, etc.) consist of 16 bits.
For 16 bits, 0 to FFFF
H
can be specified in hexadecimal.
POINT
Each register is handled with a sign.
Like BIN, values can be specified within a numeric range of -32768 to 32767.
