there are 8 bits in a byte and there are 4 bits in a half byte this half byte is called a Nibble.
there are 8 bits in a byte and there are 4 bits in a half byte this half byte is called a Nibble.
converting binary to hexadecimal
1. Split the binary number into groups off four bits.
2 .Under each group of four bits write the equivalent hexadecimal number
e.g. convert 10100101
: Split in to groups of 4
1010 0101
: Write the hexadecimal underneath
1010 0101
A 5
So 10100101 is A5 hexadecimal
