What is RGB Code?

RGB is an additive color model where colors are created by combining different intensities of red, green, and blue light. Each component ranges from 0 to 255, representing the intensity of that color channel. RGB is widely used in digital displays, web design, and computer graphics. The model is based on how human eyes perceive color through three types of cone cells. RGB values are commonly expressed as rgb(255, 0, 0) for pure red.

Structure:

RGB colors are represented as three integer values: R (Red), G (Green), and B (Blue), each ranging from 0 to 255. The format is typically written as rgb(R, G, B) or as three separate values.

Examples:

  • rgb(255, 0, 0) - Pure Red
  • rgb(0, 255, 0) - Pure Green
  • rgb(0, 0, 255) - Pure Blue
  • rgb(255, 255, 255) - White
  • rgb(0, 0, 0) - Black

What is HEX Code?

HEX color codes are a hexadecimal representation of RGB colors, widely used in web development and digital design. Each HEX code consists of a hash symbol (#) followed by six characters representing red, green, and blue components. The first two characters represent red, the next two green, and the last two blue. Each pair represents a value from 00 to FF in hexadecimal (0-255 in decimal). HEX codes provide a compact and standardized way to specify colors across different platforms and applications.

Structure:

HEX codes start with # followed by 6 hexadecimal digits (0-9, A-F). The format is #RRGGBB where RR is red, GG is green, and BB is blue components in hexadecimal.

Examples:

  • #FF0000 - Pure Red
  • #00FF00 - Pure Green
  • #0000FF - Pure Blue
  • #FFFFFF - White
  • #000000 - Black

Logic behind RGB to HEX Conversion

RGB to HEX conversion transforms decimal color values to hexadecimal representation. Each RGB component (Red, Green, Blue) ranging from 0-255 is converted to a 2-digit hexadecimal value (00-FF). The conversion formula is: HEX = '#' + decimalToHex(R) + decimalToHex(G) + decimalToHex(B). For example, RGB(255, 0, 0) becomes: R=255 → FF, G=0 → 00, B=0 → 00, resulting in #FF0000. The decimal to hex conversion uses base-16 arithmetic: divide by 16, take quotient and remainder, where remainder 10-15 becomes A-F respectively.

Use-cases of RGB and HEX

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I enter RGB values outside the 0-255 range?
Our converter automatically clamps values to the valid 0-255 range. Values below 0 become 0, and values above 255 become 255, ensuring valid color output.
Why do some HEX codes have letters in them?
HEX codes use base-16 numbering system where A=10, B=11, C=12, D=13, E=14, F=15. This allows representing values 0-255 with just two characters per color component.
Can I convert RGB percentage values to HEX?
Our tool uses 0-255 RGB values. If you have RGB percentages, convert them first: multiply by 2.55 (e.g., 50% = 50 × 2.55 = 127.5 ≈ 128).
Are the generated HEX codes compatible with all browsers?
Yes, our HEX codes follow standard web color format and are compatible with all modern browsers, CSS, and web technologies.
