How to Convert Megahertz 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 5000 MHz to ns:
  1. Convert to hertz: 5000 MHz = 5000 × 1.0e+6 = 5.0e+9 Hz
  2. Apply formula: T = 1 / 5.0e+9 Hz = 2.0e-10 seconds
  3. Convert to nanoseconds: 2.0e-10 s / 1.0e-9 = 5.0e+6 ns

Reverse Conversion

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

  • 5.0e+6 ns → f = 1 / 2.0e-10 s = 5.0e+9 Hz → 5000 MHz
