Unit Description
Megahertz (MHz)
Definition
A megahertz (MHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one million hertz (10⁶ Hz). It represents high frequencies commonly used in radio communications, early computer systems, and various electronic applications.
History
The megahertz became important with the development of radio technology in the early 20th century. It was essential for describing radio frequency bands and became widely known through radio broadcasting, later extending to early computer systems and electronic devices.
Current Use
Megahertz is widely used in radio broadcasting (AM/FM radio), early computer specifications, electronic circuits, and various communication systems. It's standard for radio frequency allocations, older processor speeds, and many electronic device specifications.
Terahertz (THz)
Definition
A terahertz (THz) is a unit of frequency equal to one trillion hertz (10¹² Hz). It represents extremely high frequencies typically found in infrared radiation, molecular vibrations, and advanced telecommunications research.
History
The terahertz became important with the development of advanced spectroscopy and telecommunications research in the late 20th century. It was particularly crucial for describing frequencies in the 'terahertz gap' between microwave and infrared radiation, opening new fields in materials science and medical imaging.
Current Use
Terahertz frequencies are used in advanced spectroscopy, medical imaging, security scanning, materials research, and cutting-edge telecommunications. They're essential for terahertz imaging systems, molecular spectroscopy, and research into next-generation wireless communications.

Conversion Examples
Convert 1 Megahertz to Terahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 MHz = 0.000001 THz
- Conversion Formula: THz = MHz ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 1 MHz ÷ 1e+6 = 0.000001 THz
Convert 10 Megahertz to Terahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 MHz = 0.000001 THz
- Conversion Formula: THz = MHz ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 10 MHz ÷ 1e+6 = 0.00001 THz
Convert 100 Megahertz to Terahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 MHz = 0.000001 THz
- Conversion Formula: THz = MHz ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 100 MHz ÷ 1e+6 = 0.0001 THz
Convert 1,000 Megahertz to Terahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 MHz = 0.000001 THz
- Conversion Formula: THz = MHz ÷ 1e+6
- Calculation: 1,000 MHz ÷ 1e+6 = 0.001 THz
