About This Tool
Binary code is the fundamental language of computers, using only 0s and 1s to represent all data. Every letter, number, and symbol you see on screen is stored as binary in computer memory.
Our text to binary converter transforms human-readable text into its binary equivalent. Each character is converted to its ASCII or UTF-8 binary representation, typically 8 bits (one byte) per character.
For example, the letter "A" converts to "01000001" in binary. This is because A has an ASCII value of 65, which equals 64+1, or 2^6 + 2^0 in binary notation.
The tool handles special characters, spaces, and even emojis by using UTF-8 encoding. This ensures accurate conversion for text in any language or character set.
Binary conversion is commonly used in programming education, encoding challenges, and understanding how computers process text data at the fundamental level.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is binary code?
Binary code is a system that uses only two digits (0 and 1) to represent all data. Computers use binary because electronic circuits have two states: on (1) and off (0).
How many bits is each character?
Standard ASCII characters use 8 bits (1 byte). Extended characters and emojis may use 16 or 32 bits depending on the UTF-8 encoding.
Can I convert binary back to text?
Yes! Use our Binary to Text converter tool to decode binary back to readable text.
Why are there spaces between binary numbers?
Spaces separate each character's binary code for readability. Each group of 8 bits represents one character.
Does it work with other languages?
Yes, the converter supports all UTF-8 characters including non-English alphabets, symbols, and emojis.
