About Kibibyte (KiB)

The kibibyte, its symbol KiB, is a unit of measurement used in the binary system that is equivalent to 1,024 bytes. Unlike the kilobyte, which is a decimal measure, the kibibyte is used in computer and data storage contexts that follow the binary system.

The kibibyte is used in applications where binary precision is essential, such as in storage capacity and data transfer in computer and binary-based communication systems.

About Bit (b)

The bit, its symbol b (lowercase b), is a unit of measurement used in the binary system to store or transmit data, such as Internet connection speed or the quality scale of an audio or video recording.

A bit is generally represented with two values, 0 or 1, although it can also be interpreted with other values like yes/no, true/false, plus/minus, etc. It is said that 8 bits make 1 byte.

A bit is one of the fundamental units used in computer technology, information technology, digital communication, as well as for storing, processing, and transmitting various types of data.

Note: Do not confuse Bit with Byte, (8 Bits = 1 Byte).
