另一种基于查找表的方法。该方法只为每个字节使用一个查找表，而不是为每个半字节使用查找表。

private static readonly uint[] _lookup32 = CreateLookup32();

private static uint[] CreateLookup32()
{
    var result = new uint[256];
    for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++)
    {
        string s=i.ToString("X2");
        result[i] = ((uint)s[0]) + ((uint)s[1] << 16);
    }
    return result;
}

private static string ByteArrayToHexViaLookup32(byte[] bytes)
{
    var lookup32 = _lookup32;
    var result = new char[bytes.Length * 2];
    for (int i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++)
    {
        var val = lookup32[bytes[i]];
        result[2*i] = (char)val;
        result[2*i + 1] = (char) (val >> 16);
    }
    return new string(result);
}

我还使用查找表中的ushort、struct｛char X1，X2｝、struct{byte X1，X2}测试了这个变体。

根据编译目标（x86、X64）的不同，它们要么具有大致相同的性能，要么稍慢于此变体。

为了获得更高的性能，其不安全的兄弟：

private static readonly uint[] _lookup32Unsafe = CreateLookup32Unsafe();
private static readonly uint* _lookup32UnsafeP = (uint*)GCHandle.Alloc(_lookup32Unsafe,GCHandleType.Pinned).AddrOfPinnedObject();

private static uint[] CreateLookup32Unsafe()
{
    var result = new uint[256];
    for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++)
    {
        string s=i.ToString("X2");
        if(BitConverter.IsLittleEndian)
            result[i] = ((uint)s[0]) + ((uint)s[1] << 16);
        else
            result[i] = ((uint)s[1]) + ((uint)s[0] << 16);
    }
    return result;
}

public static string ByteArrayToHexViaLookup32Unsafe(byte[] bytes)
{
    var lookupP = _lookup32UnsafeP;
    var result = new char[bytes.Length * 2];
    fixed(byte* bytesP = bytes)
    fixed (char* resultP = result)
    {
        uint* resultP2 = (uint*)resultP;
        for (int i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++)
        {
            resultP2[i] = lookupP[bytesP[i]];
        }
    }
    return new string(result);
}

或者如果您认为可以直接写入字符串：

public static string ByteArrayToHexViaLookup32UnsafeDirect(byte[] bytes)
{
    var lookupP = _lookup32UnsafeP;
    var result = new string((char)0, bytes.Length * 2);
    fixed (byte* bytesP = bytes)
    fixed (char* resultP = result)
    {
        uint* resultP2 = (uint*)resultP;
        for (int i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++)
        {
            resultP2[i] = lookupP[bytesP[i]];
        }
    }
    return result;
}

支持最短路径和.net核心：

    public static string BytesToString(byte[] ba) =>
        ba.Aggregate(new StringBuilder(32), (sb, b) => sb.Append(b.ToString("X2"))).ToString();

下面还通过允许本机小写选项扩展了这里的优秀答案，并且还处理null或空输入，并使其成为扩展方法。

    {
        if (bytes == null)
            return null;
        else if (bytes.Length == 0)
            return "";

        char[] c = new char[bytes.Length * 2];

        int b;
        int xAddToAlpha = lowerCase ? 87 : 55;
        int xAddToDigit = lowerCase ? -39 : -7;

        for (int i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++) {

            b = bytes[i] >> 4;
            c[i * 2] = (char)(xAddToAlpha + b + (((b - 10) >> 31) & xAddToDigit));

            b = bytes[i] & 0xF;
            c[i * 2 + 1] = (char)(xAddToAlpha + b + (((b - 10) >> 31) & xAddToDigit));
        }

        string val = new string(c);
        return val;
    }

    public static string ToHexString(this IEnumerable<byte> bytes, bool lowerCase = false)
    {
        if (bytes == null)
            return null;
        byte[] arr = bytes.ToArray();
        return arr.ToHexString(lowerCase);

为了提高性能，我会选择drphrozens解决方案。解码器的一个微小的优化可能是为任一字符使用一个表，以消除“<<4”。

显然，这两个方法调用代价高昂。如果对输入或输出数据进行某种检查（可以是CRC、校验和或其他），则If（b==255）。。。可以跳过，从而也可以完全调用方法。

使用offset++和offset代替offset和offset+1可能会带来一些理论上的好处，但我怀疑编译器比我更好地处理这一点。

这只是我的头顶，没有经过测试或基准测试。

用@CodesInChaus补充答案（反向方法）

public static byte[] HexToByteUsingByteManipulation(string s)
{
    byte[] bytes = new byte[s.Length / 2];
    for (int i = 0; i < bytes.Length; i++)
    {
        int hi = s[i*2] - 65;
        hi = hi + 10 + ((hi >> 31) & 7);

        int lo = s[i*2 + 1] - 65;
        lo = lo + 10 + ((lo >> 31) & 7) & 0x0f;

        bytes[i] = (byte) (lo | hi << 4);
    }
    return bytes;
}

说明：

&0x0f还支持小写字母

hi=hi+10+（（hi>>31）&7）；与以下内容相同：

hi=ch-65+10+（（ch-65）>>31）&7）；

对于“0”9’与hi＝ch-65+10+7相同；其为hi＝ch-48（这是因为0xffffff&7）。

对于“A”F’为hi=ch-65+10；（这是因为0x00000000&7）。

对于“a”我们必须使用大数字，所以我们必须通过使用&0x0f使某些位为0，从默认版本中减去32。

65是“A”的代码

48是“0”的代码

7是ASCII表中“9”和“A”之间的字母数（…456789:；<=>？@ABCD…）。
