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 6 GHz to ns:
  1. Convert to hertz: 6 GHz = 6 × 1.0e+9 = 6.0e+9 Hz
  2. Apply formula: T = 1 / 6.0e+9 Hz = 1.66667e-10 seconds
  3. Convert to nanoseconds: 1.66667e-10 s / 1.0e-9 = 6 ns

Reverse Conversion

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

  • 6 ns → f = 1 / 1.66667e-10 s = 6.0e+9 Hz → 6 GHz
