#
The header <cstdint> supplies integer types having specified widths, and macros that specify limits of integer types.

#
The header defines all types and macros the same as the C standard library header <stdint.h>.
The types denoted by intmax_t and uintmax_t are not required to be able to represent all values of extended integer types wider than long long and unsigned long long, respectively.
See also: ISO/IEC 9899:2024, 7.22

#
All types that use the placeholder N are optional when N is not 8, 16, 32, or 64.
The exact-width types intN_t and uintN_t for N = 8, 16, 32, and 64 are also optional; however, if an implementation defines integer types with the corresponding width and no padding bits, it defines the corresponding typedef-names.
Each of the macros listed in this subclause is defined if and only if the implementation defines the corresponding typedef-name.
[Note 1: 
The macros INTN_C and UINTN_C correspond to the typedef-names int_leastN_t and uint_leastN_t, respectively.
