Binary Converter

Convert text to binary and binary back to text. Each character is encoded as its 8-bit binary representation.

About this tool

Every character you type is stored as a number, and that number can be represented in binary. The letter 'A' is ASCII code 65, which is 01000001 in 8-bit binary. 'Hello' becomes five 8-bit groups: 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111. This tool encodes text using UTF-16 character codes, which covers standard ASCII and most common characters. For number base conversion (decimal, hex, octal) see the HEX Converter tool.
