The range of unsigned integers that can be represented in 24&nbsp;bits is 0 to 16,777,215 (0xFFFFFF in [[hexadecimal]]). The range of unsignedsigned integers that can be represented in 24&nbsp;bits is -8,388,608 to 8,388,607.
 
Several fixed-point [[digital signal processor]]s have a 24-bit data bus, selected as the basic word length because it gave the system a reasonable precision for the processing audio (sound).
