Frequently asked questions

How do I convert bytes to bits?

To convert bytes to bits, multiply the value by 8: bit = B × 8. For example 64 B = 512 bit.

What is 1 B in bits?

1 B = 8 bit. The other way round, 1 bit = 0.125 B.

How exact is the result?

The converter uses the official definitions of both units and shows up to 10 significant digits; choose 0–6 decimals to round. Both units are defined exactly in terms of each other, so the factor itself is exact.

Can I convert other units of digital information here?

Yes – choose any of the 15 units of digital information in the From and To lists, or switch to another measurement at the top.
