Convert between text and hexadecimal
Hexadecimal (base-16) is one of the most common representations used in computing. Each byte is expressed as exactly two hex digits — compact, human-readable, and unambiguous. You see it every day: HTML colors like #1A5CFF, file hashes like a3f4d8..., and memory dumps.
This converter works both ways:
- Text → Hex: Converts each character to its ASCII value, then to two hex digits
- Hex → Text: Reads pairs of hex digits and converts back to ASCII characters
Useful for debugging, understanding network protocols, learning computer science fundamentals, and working with raw binary data. All conversion happens in your browser — private, instant, no limits.
