Gigahertz to Cycle per second Converter
Use this page to convert gigahertz values into cycle per second, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.
Conversion formula
1 GHz = 1,000,000,000 cycle/s
1 cycle/s = 0.000000001 GHz
Example: 1000000000 GHz = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 cycle/s
Gigahertz
One gigahertz is equal to one billion hertz (1000000000 hertz).
History: Gigahertz became common with radio, microwave, and computing frequencies.
Current use: Used for processors, wireless communication, radar, and microwave systems.
Also written as GHz, gigahertz.
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.
