Why is the default value 0x1000 instead of 0x200?
Attachment
From the manual , in Bits 12-8 , the default value is 0x10 , meaning that only Bit 9 is 1.
From the calculator it shows b10 0000 0000 = 0x200. But why does the document say its 0x1000 instead?

Each hexadecimal digit corresponds to 4 bits (a.k.a. a nibble). In the number 0x10, only bit 5 is 1.
The correct conversion is this:
0x10 --> 1 0
0001 0000 --> 0b10000

@Arkyo The number can be written as "binary 10000" or "decimal 16" or "octal 20" or "hexadecimal 10"... They're all equally valid. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ The documentation author chose hexadecimal.
