0x1403

0x1403 is a hexadecimal numeral that may appear in many computing contexts. The prefix 0x indicates that the digits that follow are in base 16. The value 0x1403 corresponds to the decimal number 5123. In computing, such literals are commonly used to encode numbers, addresses, flags, or identifiers within source code, data streams, and hardware interfaces. The exact meaning of 0x1403 is not universal; it depends on the system, library, or device that defines or uses it.

Because 0x1403 is not a standardized constant, its interpretation varies. In software development, it may serve as a constant in an API, an enumeration value, a bit-field mask, or an error or status code defined by a particular program or framework. In hardware contexts, hexadecimal values often represent register offsets, device IDs, or configuration values in a device’s memory map. In data formats or network protocols, 0x1403 could appear as part of a multi-byte field where endianness determines its interpreted value.

When encountering 0x1403, the most reliable interpretation comes from the surrounding documentation or specifications for the system in which it appears. Without context, it is simply a hexadecimal number with a decimal equivalent of 5123.
