TIMESTAMP

TIMESTAMP data is stored as a 64-bit unsigned integer and represents a quantity in microseconds.

You can compute a binary TIMESTAMP value for a given year, month, day, hour, minute, second, and microsecond as follows:

Compute binaryDateValue for the date.

Compute binaryTimeValue for the time.
binaryDateTimeValue = binaryDateValue *
    86400000000 + binaryTimeValue
