UTF-8 bytes
Text is encoded with UTF-8, so non-ASCII characters can require multiple bytes. Calling every byte sequence ASCII would be misleading.
Three byte displays
The same bytes can be shown in binary, hexadecimal, or decimal notation.
Decoding invalid sequences
When byte input is not valid UTF-8, the browser decoder may insert replacement characters instead of inventing a different character.
Frequently asked questions
Does conversion happen in my browser?
Yes. These value conversions run in the browser and do not require an account.
Should I verify a critical conversion?
Yes. For engineering, laboratory, medical, financial, legal, or safety-critical work, verify the unit definition and result against an authoritative standard for your context.
