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.
