Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
Hz = MHz × 1000000
Multiply any value in megahertz by 1000000 to obtain the value in hertz.
Worked example
Convert 1 MHz to Hz.
- 01Start with 1 MHz.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1 × 1000000 = 1.00000e+6 Hz.
Result1 MHz = 1.00000e+6 Hz

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from MHz to Hz?
1 MHz equals 1000000 Hz. To convert, multiply the value in megahertz by 1000000.
How do I convert 1 MHz to Hz?
1 MHz = 1.00000e+6 Hz. For any value, multiply by 1000000.
How do I convert Hz back to MHz?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1e-6. So 1 Hz = 1e-6 MHz.
When would I need to convert megahertz to hertz?
Frequency conversions between MHz and Hz are needed in signal and RF engineering, motor and turbomachinery rotational-speed work, vibration and pulse-rate analysis, and control-loop sample-rate specification. Hz dominates electronics and instrumentation; kHz, MHz and GHz cover audio through microwave; rpm and rps dominate mechanical rotational equipment; cycles per minute, second and hour cover slow industrial cyclic processes. Angular frequency (rad/s) and time-period (Hz ↔ seconds) conversions are NOT included — they require either a 2π factor or a reciprocal relationship.
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).
