Unit Description
Microhertz (µHz)
Definition
A microhertz (µHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one millionth of a hertz (10⁻⁶ Hz). It represents extremely low frequencies found in astronomical phenomena, very slow biological processes, and precision scientific measurements.
History
The microhertz became important with advanced astronomical observations and precision scientific measurements. It was particularly crucial for describing stellar oscillations, planetary motions, and other astronomical phenomena with very long periods.
Current Use
Microhertz is used in astronomy for stellar seismology, precision timing systems, long-term biological studies, and advanced scientific research. It's essential for measuring astronomical oscillations, very slow biological rhythms, and ultra-precision frequency standards.
Gigahertz (GHz)
Definition
A gigahertz (GHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one billion hertz (10⁹ Hz). It represents very high frequencies commonly found in microwave radiation, computer processors, and modern wireless communications.
History
The gigahertz became prominent with the development of microwave technology and high-speed electronics in the mid-20th century. It gained widespread recognition with computer processor speeds and became a household term with the advancement of personal computers and wireless technology.
Current Use
Gigahertz is extensively used in computer processor specifications, wireless communications (WiFi, Bluetooth, cellular), microwave technology, and radar systems. It's standard for CPU clock speeds, wireless frequency bands, and microwave oven operating frequencies.

Conversion Examples
Convert 1 Microhertz to Gigahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 µHz = 1e-15 GHz
- Conversion Formula: GHz = µHz ÷ 1e+15
- Calculation: 1 µHz ÷ 1e+15 = 1e-15 GHz
Convert 10 Microhertz to Gigahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 µHz = 1e-15 GHz
- Conversion Formula: GHz = µHz ÷ 1e+15
- Calculation: 10 µHz ÷ 1e+15 = 1e-14 GHz
Convert 100 Microhertz to Gigahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 µHz = 1e-15 GHz
- Conversion Formula: GHz = µHz ÷ 1e+15
- Calculation: 100 µHz ÷ 1e+15 = 1e-13 GHz
Convert 1,000 Microhertz to Gigahertz
- Conversion Factor: 1 µHz = 1e-15 GHz
- Conversion Formula: GHz = µHz ÷ 1e+15
- Calculation: 1,000 µHz ÷ 1e+15 = 1e-12 GHz
