Nibble to Byte Converter

Nibble

In computing, a nibble is a string of four-bits or half an octet. It is also known as half-byte or tetrade. In a networking or telecommunication context, the nibble is often called a semi-octet, quadbit, or quartet. A nibble has sixteen possible values. A nibble can be represented by a single hexadecimal digit (0–F) and called a hex digit. A full byte (octet) is represented by two hexadecimal digits (00–FF); therefore, it is common to display a byte of information as two nibbles.

Byte

The byte (symbol: upper-case letter B) is a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits. Historically, the byte was the number of bits used to encode a single character of text in a computer. Thus the byte is the smallest addressable unit of memory in many computer architectures.
