About Text to Binary Conversion
Binary code represents text or computer processor instructions using the binary number system's two binary digits: 0 and 1. Each character in your text is converted to its 8-bit binary representation according to the ASCII standard.
For example:
H
=01001000
e
=01100101
l
=01101100
l
=01101100
o
=01101111
So the text "Hello" becomes: 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111
Common Text to Binary Conversions
Here are some common text to binary examples:
- A: 01000001
- 1: 00110001
- Hello: 01001000 01100101 01101100 01101100 01101111
- Code: 01000011 01101111 01100100 01100101
- Space ( ): 00100000
Binary Encoding Standards
Our converter uses ASCII encoding, which represents each character with 7 bits (extended to 8 bits with a leading zero). Other encoding systems include:
- UTF-8: Variable-length character encoding (1-4 bytes per character)
- UTF-16: Uses 2 or 4 bytes per character
- Unicode: Supports over 140,000 characters
