Instantly convert any text into its binary representation.
Enter your ASCII text below:
ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) is a character encoding standard for electronic communication. ASCII codes represent text in computers, telecommunications equipment, and other devices. It assigns a unique number to each character, including letters, numbers, and symbols.
Binary is a base-2 number system that uses only two digits, 0 and 1. It is the language of computers and is used to represent data. In binary, a single digit is called a bit. Converting ASCII to binary means translating the decimal value of each character into its corresponding binary string.
Our free online tool simplifies the process of converting text to binary code. You don't need to understand complex programming or algorithms. Simply type or paste your text into the input box, click the 'Convert to Binary' button, and the tool will instantly generate the binary representation. Each character in your text is converted to its 8-bit binary equivalent, separated by a space for easy readability.
