About HEX to Base64 Converter

This tool allows you to convert hexadecimal (HEX) data to Base64 encoded format with various display options. HEX is a common way to represent binary data in a text format using the characters 0-9 and A-F.

Supported HEX input formats:

  • Plain - Simple uppercase or lowercase hex characters (DEADBEEF or deadbeef)
  • With Dashes - Pairs separated by dashes (DE-AD-BE-EF)
  • With 0x Prefix - Each byte has 0x prefix (0xDE 0xAD 0xBE 0xEF)
  • With Colons - Pairs separated by colons (DE:AD:BE:EF)
  • With Spaces - Pairs separated by spaces (DE AD BE EF)

Available Base64 output formats:

  • Standard - Regular Base64 encoding (SGVsbG8gV29ybGQ=)
  • URL Safe - URL-friendly Base64 where '+' is replaced with '-' and '/' with '_'
  • With Line Breaks - Base64 with line breaks every 76 characters for better readability

Technical Standards & Format Details

Hexadecimal Format Standards

Hexadecimal encoding follows established standards for representing binary data in human-readable format using base-16 numeral system.

HEX Specifications:
  • IEEE 754 floating-point hex representation
  • MAC address format (xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx)
  • Color codes in CSS and graphics (#RRGGBB)
  • Memory addresses and debugging output
Base64 Encoding Standards

Base64 encoding follows RFC 4648 standards, providing reliable method for encoding binary data in ASCII string format for safe transmission.

Base64 Standards:
  • RFC 4648 - Standard Base64 alphabet
  • RFC 4648 - URL and filename safe Base64
  • MIME Base64 with line length limits
  • Data URI scheme compatibility

For detailed technical specifications, refer to RFC 4648 for Base64 encoding standards and Hexadecimal Wikipedia for comprehensive hex format documentation.
