Frequently Asked Questions

Each character's Unicode code point is converted to binary and padded to 8 bits (one byte), separated by spaces — e.g. 'A' becomes '01000001'.

Code points above 255 will produce a binary string longer than 8 digits (not truncated or padded to a fixed width), since this encodes the raw code point value rather than a proper multi-byte UTF-8 sequence.

Use the separate Binary Decoder tool for the reverse direction.

No — conversion happens entirely in your browser.
