To convert nanoseconds to microseconds, multiply the value by 0.001. To go the other way, multiply microseconds by 1,000 to get nanoseconds.
| Nanoseconds (ns) | Microseconds (µs) |
|---|---|
| 1 ns | 0.001 µs |
| 5 ns | 0.005 µs |
| 10 ns | 0.01 µs |
| 25 ns | 0.025 µs |
| 50 ns | 0.05 µs |
| 100 ns | 0.1 µs |
| 250 ns | 0.25 µs |
| 500 ns | 0.5 µs |
| 1,000 ns | 1 µs |
| 2,500 ns | 2.5 µs |
| 5,000 ns | 5 µs |
| 10,000 ns | 10 µs |
| 100,000 ns | 100 µs |
| 1,000,000 ns | 1,000 µs |
Nanosecond (ns). A nanosecond is one billionth of a second — light travels about 30 cm in that time.
Microsecond (µs). A microsecond is one millionth of a second.
There are 0.001 microseconds in one nanosecond.
Multiply the number of nanoseconds by 0.001. For example, 10 nanoseconds equal 0.01 microseconds.
One microsecond equals 1,000 nanoseconds.
1 microsecond. Other common values: 100 nanoseconds = 0.1 microseconds and 10,000 nanoseconds = 10 microseconds.
