Binary Code Translator

The Binary Code Translator converts between text and binary bytes using ASCII, UTF-8 or UTF-16 BE. Conversion happens in your browser.

Who runs this

Morse Code Box provides a Morse code translator and a binary code translator in the browser, free of charge.

Sources and limits

ITU-R M.1677-1 Morse recommendation

Morse symbols and signal timing follow ITU-R M.1677-1. This tool accepts typed or pasted dots and dashes, using spaces and / to separate letters and words; it does not decode recordings or photos, and it does not support American railroad Morse.

Unicode Standard encoding forms

The binary tool uses the encoding forms described in the Unicode Standard. Binary text is an encoding, not encryption. To read bytes correctly, you need to know which encoding was used to write them.
