A silicon microchip carrying a gigabyte of data, for instance, has a Shannon entropy of about 1010 bits (one byte is eight bits), tremendously smaller than the chip's thermodynamic entropy, which is about 1023 bits at room temperature.

例如，一个带有10亿位元组数据的矽微晶片所拥有的夏侬熵约是1010个位元（一个位元组有八个位元），远小于晶片的热力学熵——在室温时约为1023位元。
