Hex to Binary Converter

About this: Converting hexadecimal (hex) to binary involves converting each hexadecimal digit into its equivalent binary representation. In hexadecimal, each digit represents four bits (a nibble), and binary is a base-2 system, so each digit represents a power of 2. Here's a step-by-step process to convert a hex number to binary: Understand the Hexadecimal System: Hexadecimal uses the digits 0-9 and the letters A-F to represent values 0-15. Hexadecimal digits have a 1:1 correspondence with 4-bit binary values. Convert Hex to Binary Digit by Digit: For each hex digit, replace it with its 4-bit binary representation. Use the following mapping: 0: 0000 1: 0001 2: 0010 3: 0011 4: 0100 5: 0101 6: 0110 7: 0111 8: 1000 9: 1001 A: 1010 B: 1011 C: 1100 D: 1101 E: 1110 F: 1111 Combine Binary Digits: Combine the binary representations of each hex digit to get the complete binary representation of the hex number. Example: Let's say you want to convert the hex number 1A3 to binary. 1 (hex) is 0001 (binary) A (hex) is 1010 (binary) 3 (hex) is 0011 (binary) Combine them: 000110100011 (binary) So, 1A3 (hex) is 000110100011 (binary). You can use this method for any hex number by breaking it down into individual hex digits and converting each digit to its binary equivalent.
