Binary to ASCII Conversion Tool
Binary to ASCII conversion allows computers to interpret human-readable characters using binary code. Each character in ASCII is represented by a unique 8-bit binary number.
What is ASCII?
ASCII stands for the American Standard Code for Information Interchange. It's a character encoding standard that maps binary numbers to letters, digits, and symbols.
Example:
Binary:
Binary:
01001000 01101001 → ASCII: HiHow to Convert Binary to ASCII
- Split the binary input into 8-bit chunks (bytes)
- Convert each byte into a decimal number
- Look up the ASCII character for that decimal value
- Combine the characters into the final string
