0x3EB4

0x3EB4 is a hexadecimal numeric literal commonly used in computing. The prefix 0x indicates that the digits that follow are in base-16, a standard notation in many programming languages for representing integers, bit patterns, and addresses.

The value of 0x3EB4 in decimal is 16052. In binary, it is 001110111010110100. As a 16-bit unsigned value, it occupies the full range of a typical two-byte quantity. In big-endian form the most significant byte comes first, yielding the byte sequence 0x3E 0xB4; in little-endian form the bytes are stored as 0xB4 0x3E. Depending on the system, the same 16-bit value may be interpreted differently if endianness is not accounted for.

0x3EB4 may appear in software and hardware contexts as a constant, an identifier in a memory dump, or a field value within a protocol or data file. Its specific meaning is context-dependent and not standardized by the hexadecimal representation itself. For example, in source code it could be used as an unsigned integer constant, while in a binary format it might encode a particular flag or parameter according to the format’s specification.

In general, 0x3EB4 serves as a compact, human-readable way to express a 16-bit value. When encountered, its interpretation should be inferred from accompanying documentation, data structures, or the surrounding code.
