comment #0 states is expected.

matlab 2022a:

>> dec2bin(int16(-4200))
ans =
    '1110111110011000'

>> dec2bin(int32(-4200))
ans =
    '1110111110011000'

>> dec2bin(int32(-4200),32)
ans =
    '11111111111111111110111110011000'

>> dec2bin(int32(-42000))
ans =
    '11111111111111110101101111110000'

>> dec2bin(-42000)
ans =
    '11111111111111110101101111110000'
