What is the difference between Kilobits and Bits?
The main difference between Kilobits and Bits is that 1 Kilobits equals 1024 Bits using the convention. Note that data storage units commonly use two conventions: the decimal (SI) based on powers of 1000 (kB, MB, GB, etc.) and the binary (IEC) based on powers of 1024 (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc.). This calculator uses the convention.
Is Kilobits bigger than Bits?
Kilobit is larger than Bit. Specifically, using the convention, 1 Kilobits equals 1024 Bits.
Why is there confusion between KB and KiB, MB and MiB, etc.?
Historically, "kilobyte" (KB) was often used informally to mean 1024 bytes (2^10). However, the SI prefix "kilo" officially means 1000 (10^3). This led to confusion. The IEC introduced binary prefixes like kibibyte (KiB) specifically for 1024 bytes, mebibyte (MiB) for 1024 KiB, etc., to provide clarity. SI prefixes (kB, MB, GB) are now correctly used for powers of 1000, while IEC prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB) are used for powers of 1024.
What is the difference between bits and bytes?
A bit is the smallest unit of data, representing a binary value of either 0 or 1. A byte is a common unit of digital information that consists of 8 bits. Data storage capacity is typically measured in bytes and their larger multiples.
