Normally a 'char' type is identical to an 8 bit byte type. If you're talking Unicode, a wchar_t is equal to 2 bytes and (thus) makes up 16 bits. Which do you have in mind?

Are you asking how to convert binary data to HEX-ASCII? For example, convert the single byte 0x4C to the pair of characters '4' and 'C'.
