How to use this tool

  1. Paste your codes, separated by spaces (e.g. '01001000 01101001').
  2. Select whether they're binary, decimal, or hex.
  3. Read the decoded text instantly.

Paste space-separated binary, decimal, or hexadecimal ASCII codes and this decoder converts them straight back into readable text. It auto-handles whichever number base you pick, so you don't need a separate tool for each format.

Frequently asked questions

What format do the codes need to be in?
Space-separated groups: 8-bit binary (01001000), decimal (72), or hex (48) — one group per character.
Why do I get '(invalid input)'?
One of the codes couldn't be parsed in the selected base — double-check the format dropdown matches your input, and that groups are separated by spaces.
