Millihertz to Gigahertz Converter

A millihertz (mHz) is a unit of frequency equal to one thousandth of a hertz (0.001 Hz). It represents very low frequencies found in extremely slow oscillations, geological processes, and some biological rhythms.

The millihertz became necessary for describing extremely slow periodic phenomena in scientific research. It was particularly important in geophysics, astronomy, and biological studies where natural cycles occur over very long time periods.

Millihertz is used in geophysics for seismic wave analysis, astronomy for stellar oscillations, biological research for circadian rhythms, and precision timing applications. It's essential for measuring very slow natural cycles and long-period oscillations.

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.

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.

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.
