Step 1: Determine the UTF-8 encoding bit layout
The character ƀ has the Unicode code point U+0180. In UTF-8, it is encoded using 2 bytes because its codepoint is in the range of
0x0080to0x07ff.
Therefore we know that the UTF-8 encoding will be done over 11 bits within the final 16 bits and that it will have the format:110xxxxx 10xxxxxx
Where thexare the payload bits.UTF-8 Encoding bit layout by codepoint range Codepoint Range Bytes Bit pattern Payload length U+0000 - U+007F 1 0xxxxxxx 7 bits U+0080 - U+07FF 2 110xxxxx 10xxxxxx 11 bits U+0800 - U+FFFF 3 1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 16 bits U+10000 - U+10FFFF 4 11110xxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx 21 bits Step 2: Obtain the payload bits:
Convert the hexadecimal code point U+0180 to binary:
00000001 10000000. Those are the payload bits.Step 3: Fill in the bits to match the bit pattern:
Obtain the final bytes by arranging the paylod bits to match the bit layout:

Description
U+0180, also known as LATIN SMALL LETTER B WITH STROKE, is a unique typographical character in the Unicode standard. It is primarily used in digital text to represent a lowercase letter that features a single horizontal stroke through the vertical bar of the letter "b". This specific character can be found within the Latin Extended-A block and holds significance for those working with linguistic or cultural contexts where it may be used as part of a particular alphabet or orthography. Although its usage is relatively uncommon in everyday digital text, the LATIN SMALL LETTER B WITH STROKE serves an essential role in accurately representing certain language systems and maintaining typographic integrity for those specific applications.
