About the Binary System
How does the conversion work?
This converter transforms each character of your text into its binary representation according to the UTF-8 standard, which can use between 1 and 4 bytes per character.
The conversion follows these steps:
- Gets the Unicode code for each character
- Converts the Unicode value to binary (base 2)
- Pads with leading zeros to complete 8 bits per byte
- Joins the bytes with spaces for better readability
Common ASCII Table
ASCII characters (0-127) use only 1 byte:
| Character | Binary | Decimal |
|---|---|---|
| A | 01000001 | 65 |
| a | 01100001 | 97 |
| 1 | 00110001 | 49 |
| @ | 01000000 | 64 |
| Space | 00100000 | 32 |
