Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ཛ has the Unicode code point U+0F5B. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 3 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0800to0xffff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 16 bits within the final 24 bits and that it will have the format:1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0F5B to binary:
00001111 01011011. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:
11100000 10111101 10011011

Description
The character U+0F5B, or TIBETAN LETTER DZA, plays a crucial role in the Tibetan language, which is part of the Sino-Tibetan family of languages. This particular character represents the sound "dz" and is used to construct words in digital text. As with many other characters in the Unicode Standard, U+0F5B contributes significantly to preserving and promoting the rich cultural heritage and linguistic diversity of the Tibetan people. Due to its technical nature as part of a complex writing system that uses a combination of phonetic and logographic elements, U+0F5B is primarily used for encoding and display purposes within digital systems, such as word processors, websites, and mobile applications, to ensure accurate representation and understanding of Tibetan language text.
