Cycle per second to Hertz Converter
Use this page to convert cycle per second values into hertz, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.
Conversion formula
1 cycle/s = 1 Hz
1 Hz = 1 cycle/s
Example: 1000000000 cycle/s = 1,000,000,000 Hz
Cycle per second
One cycle per second is equal to one hertz.
History: Cycles per second was common before hertz became the formal SI name.
Current use: Used mainly for legacy frequency references.
Also written as cycle/s, cycles per second, cps.
Hertz
Hertz measures cycles per second.
History: The hertz is named after Heinrich Hertz and is the SI unit of frequency.
Current use: Used for waves, electronics, optics, sound, radio, computing, and periodic phenomena.
Also written as Hz, hertz, cycles per second.
