Unicode to Binary Converter

World's Simplest Unicode Tool

This browser-based utility converts Unicode text to base-2 binary data. Anything that you paste or enter in the text area on the left automatically gets printed as binary on the right. It supports the most popular Unicode encodings (such as UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, UCS-2, and UCS-4) and it works with emoji characters. You can also customize the binary output format by enabling binary padding and spacing. Created by encoding gurus from team Browserling.

You can also customize the binary output format by enabling binary padding and spacing. Created by encoding gurus from team Browserling.

Tool Options

Binary Padding

If you enable this option, then all output bytes will be full octets (meaning 8 bits in every byte).

Binary Spacing

If you enable this option, then all output bytes will have a space character after each of them.

Output Encoding

Use this Unicode encoding in the output.
If you selected UTF16, UTF32, UCS2, or UCS4 as output encoding, then add Byte Order Mark (BOM) at the beginning.

What Is a Unicode to Binary Converter?

This utility decodes your input Unicode data into individual code points and then encodes each code point to binary. Depending on which output encoding you have selected, each character can be encoded from one to four bytes in length. If the output encoding is UTF32 or UCS4, then each code point will be four bytes (or 32 bits). If the output encoding is UTF16 or UCS2, then each code point will be either two bytes (16 bits) or, if it's a more complex character, then four bytes (32 bits). If the output encoding is UTF8, then the binary will be one to four bytes in length (variable length 8 to 32 bits). When converting the Unicode data to binary, you can make it print full-length binary bytes always using 8 bits per byte, even if the byte starts with one or more zero bits. For increased readability, you can also put a space between every binary octet. We also support Little Endian and Big Endian byte orders for UTF16, UTF32, UCS2, and UCS4 encodings, as well as prepending a BOM (Byte Order Mark) to the binary output stream. To print the output in Little Endian format, select UTF16-LE, UTF32-LE, UCS2-LE, or UCS4-LE output encoding but to print output in Big Endian format, select UTF16-BE, UTF32-BE, UCS2-BE, or UCS4-BE from the output encoding dropdown option.

Emoji Flags in Binary

In this example, we convert emoji Unicode flags of the five biggest economies into binary bits in UTF8 encoding. To make the output more readable, we've enabled two output options. The first option adds padding to binary so that each UTF8 byte is 8 bits long, and the second option puts a space between every 8 bits.

Unicode Font in Binary

This example converts a fancy Unicode font to base two and Big Endian UTF16 encoding. It disables the space between octets option and produces a lengthy binary stream as output.

Unicode to Binary UCS4LE

This example converts a quote by Albert Einstein to binary in UCS-4 Little Endian encoding with a BOM. UCS4 is the same encoding as UTF32, so it's exactly the same as encoding it to UTF32LE encoding. Both UCS4 and UTF32 use 4 bytes per Unicode code point, so each code point is 32 bits in length in the output.
