Formula

Formula
V = nV × 1e-9

Multiply any value in nanovolts by 1e-9 to obtain the value in volts.

Worked example

Convert 1e+9 nV to V.

  1. 01Start with 1e+9 nV.
  2. 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1e+9 × 1e-9 = 1 V.
Result1e+9 nV = 1 V

FAQ

What is the conversion factor from nV to V?
1 nV equals 1e-9 V. To convert, multiply the value in nanovolts by 1e-9.
How do I convert 1 nV to V?
1 nV = 1e-9 V. For any value, multiply by 1e-9.
How do I convert V back to nV?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1e+9. So 1 V = 1e+9 nV.
When would I need to convert nanovolt to volt?
Voltage conversions between nV and V are routine in instrumentation, power-system analysis and electronics design. Volts and kilovolts dominate power-system documents (LV/MV/HV switchgear, motor ratings), while millivolts and microvolts appear on transducer datasheets, thermocouple signal chains and low-level analog measurements.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
