1.5 Number Systems

To use a microprocessor or microcontroller efficiently requires a working knowledge of binary, decimal, and hexadecimal numbering systems. This section provides background information about these numbering systems for readers who are unfamiliar with them or do not know how to convert from one number system to another. Number systems are classified according to their bases. The numbering system used in everyday life is base 10, or the decimal number system. The numbering system most commonly used in microprocessor and microcontroller applications is base 16, or hexadecimal. Base 2, or binary, and base 8, or octal, number systems are also used.
