Binary to Decimal Fractions Converter

This online tool allows you to convert binary to decimal numbers. The binary numbers can be signed, unsigned, integers or fractions. This is different than most online binary to decimal calculators, that usually only convert integers.
The calculator converts a binary unsigned number (b_nb_n-1...b₀.f₁f₂...f_m), to the decimal number b_n·2ⁿ + b_n-1·2^n-1 + ... + b₁·2¹ + b₀·2⁰ + f₁·2^-1 + f₂·2^-2 + ... + f_m·2^-m.

For signed numbers b_n is the sign bit and the calculator converts (b_nb_n-1...b₀.f₁f₂...f_m), to the decimal number -b_n·2ⁿ + b_n-1·2^n-1 + ... + b₁·2¹ + b₀·2⁰ + f₁·2^-1 + f₂·2^-2 + ... + f_m·2^-m.
