Bit | Byte | Number systems | Microcontrollers from scratch #3
A bit is an elementary memory cell in which only two values of 0 and 1 can be stored. The byte consists of eight bits and can already contain information about 256 different combinations consisting of zeros and ones as before. All digital systems, including computers and microcontrollers, store and process only binary numbers 0 and 1, that is, they work with a binary number system. One people used to work with decimal numbers, that is, with a decimal number system. This video shows how to convert values from one number system to another.
