Whether it goes into a register doesn't matter. Hex values are useful for
values which are subdivided into various bitfields, or whose hex representation
is simpler than decimal. I'm not familiar with the details of this hardware,
but I doubt the former is the case for 0x3b9ac9fb == 9999999995 or 0x18696 ==
99990.
[Lu Yangbo-B47093] Thanks Scott. I got it. The hex value here is not for
various bitfields but a value calculated manually. I will modify to decimalism.
