How to Convert Gigahertz to Nanoseconds

Frequency and period are inversely related. The formula is: T = 1 / f, where T is the period and f is the frequency.

Conversion Steps

  • The formula is: Period = 1 / Frequency
  • For example, to convert 4 × 1010 GHz to ns:
  1. Convert to hertz: 4.0e+10 GHz = 4.0e+10 × 1.0e+9 = 4.0e+19 Hz
  2. Apply formula: T = 1 / 4.0e+19 Hz = 2.5e-20 seconds
  3. Convert to nanoseconds: 2.5e-20 s / 1.0e-9 = 4.0e+10 ns

Reverse Conversion

To convert nanoseconds back to gigahertz, use f = 1 / T:

  • 4.0e+10 ns → f = 1 / 2.5e-20 s = 4.0e+19 Hz → 4.0e+10 GHz
