ASCII is 7-bit
Standard ASCII defines values 0 through 127. Values 128–255 belong to later 8-bit encodings, so OneFreePlace labels them separately instead of presenting a misleading “extended ASCII” table.
A searchable, inspectable reference for true 7-bit ASCII — with every decimal, hex, octal and binary value, control-code notation, HTML/URL representations, exports, and clearly separated legacy 8-bit comparisons.

ASCII is strictly 7-bit: 0–127. The optional 128–255 tables are legacy encodings and are intentionally labeled separately.
Enter one character, decimal, 0x hex, 0o octal, 0b binary, or U+ notation.
Control pictures such as ␊ and ␉ are display symbols, not replacements for the original byte values.
ASCII itself ends at 127. “Extended ASCII” is not one universal table: byte 0x80 can represent different characters depending on the legacy encoding. This comparison prevents the common mistake of treating Windows-1252, ISO-8859-1 and CP437 as interchangeable.
Standard ASCII defines values 0 through 127. Values 128–255 belong to later 8-bit encodings, so OneFreePlace labels them separately instead of presenting a misleading “extended ASCII” table.
NUL, TAB, LF, CR and ESC are not printable glyphs. The table shows control pictures, caret notation and common C-style escapes so you can recognize them without altering their numeric values.
Search for a decimal value, 0x hex, octal, binary, character, Unicode notation, control abbreviation, HTML entity or URL percent byte.
Export the currently visible rows as CSV or JSON for documentation, tests, parsers and teaching materials. Everything is generated locally.
The URL column shows the percent form of the ASCII byte, such as %41 for A. Percent-encoding rules decide when a byte actually needs escaping in a URL.
ASCII is a subset of UTF-8. For new text formats and web content, UTF-8 is normally the right encoding; the legacy views here are for debugging and compatibility.
