Frequency Converter

A frequency converter is a device that helps users change the frequency values ​​between different devices. It is widely used in electrical engineering, physics, telecommunications, sound treatment and industrial automation to ensure accurate frequency measurements in different applications.

Common Frequency Conversions:

• Hz (Hz) for KHz (KHz): Radio is used in waves, sound signals and electronics.
• Kilohertz (KHz) to MHz (MHz): Common in telecommunications and broadcasting.
• Megahertz (MHz) for Gigahertz (GHz): Data processing and wireless network.
• Revolutions per minute from Hz (Hz): Important in mechanical and motor applications.
• Wavelength for frequency: Important in optics and wave physics.

Key Frequency Conversion Formulas:

1. Hertz to Kilohertz:

1 kHz=1000 Hz

2. Kilohertz to Megahertz:

1 MHz=1000 kHz

3. Megahertz to Gigahertz:

1 GHz=1000 MHz

4. RPM to Hertz:

Frequency (Hz)=60/RPM​

5. Wavelength to Frequency:

f=λ/c​

where:

• f = frequency (Hz)
• c = speed of light in vacuum (≈ 3.0 × 10⁸ m/s)
• λ = wavelength (m)

Key Uses of the Frequency Converter:

• Electronics and signal processing: Change between Hz, KHz, MHz and GHz for circuit design.
• Radio and telecommunications: Adjust frequencies for broadcasting and networks.
• Mechanical engineering science: Change RPM to Hz for calculating engine speed.
• Wave Physics and Optics: Convert wavelength to frequencies for light and sound application.
• Audio and music production: Adjust the sound wave frequencies for improving pitch and mixture.

1. Select the Input Frequency Unit

• Example: 1000 Hz (Hertz)

2. Select the Output Unit

• Example: Convert to Kilohertz (kHz)

3. Click ‘Convert’

• The tool calculates and displays the converted frequency instantly.

Example 1: Convert 5000 Hz to Kilohertz

Input:

• Frequency in Hertz: 5000 Hz
• Convert To: Kilohertz (kHz)

Calculation:

5000÷1000=5 kHz

Result:

• 5000 Hz = 5 kHz

Example 2: Convert 3600 RPM to Hertz

Input:

• Rotational Speed in RPM: 3600 RPM
• Convert To: Hertz (Hz)

Calculation:

3600÷60=60 Hz

Result:

• 3600 RPM = 60 Hz

Conversion Formula

Example Calculation

Hertz (Hz)

Kilohertz (kHz)

Hz ÷ 1,000

5000 Hz = 5000 ÷ 1,000 = 5 kHz

Hertz (Hz)

Megahertz (MHz)

Hz ÷ 1,000,000

2,000,000 Hz = 2,000,000 ÷ 1,000,000 = 2 MHz

Hertz (Hz)

Gigahertz (GHz)

Hz ÷ 1,000,000,000

3,000,000,000 Hz = 3 GHz

Kilohertz (kHz)

Hertz (Hz)

kHz × 1,000

5 kHz = 5 × 1,000 = 5000 Hz

Kilohertz (kHz)

Megahertz (MHz)

kHz ÷ 1,000

1,500 kHz = 1,500 ÷ 1,000 = 1.5 MHz

Megahertz (MHz)

Hertz (Hz)

MHz × 1,000,000

3 MHz = 3 × 1,000,000 = 3,000,000 Hz

Megahertz (MHz)

Kilohertz (kHz)

MHz × 1,000

2 MHz = 2 × 1,000 = 2,000 kHz

Gigahertz (GHz)

Hertz (Hz)

GHz × 1,000,000,000

1 GHz = 1 × 1,000,000,000 = 1,000,000,000 Hz

Gigahertz (GHz)

Megahertz (MHz)

GHz × 1,000

4 GHz = 4 × 1,000 = 4,000 MHz
