How to Convert Megahertz to Cycles per Second

To convert megahertz to cycles per second (cps), multiply the number of megahertz by 1,000,000. This is because 1 megahertz is equal to 1,000,000 hertz, and 1 hertz is equal to 1 cycle per second.

Formula

Cycles per Second = Megahertz × 1,000,000

or

cps = MHz × 1,000,000

Step-by-step process

  1. Take the measurement in megahertz
  2. Multiply that number by 1,000,000
  3. The result is the equivalent frequency in cycles per second

Examples

  • 5 MHz = 5 × 1,000,000 = 5,000,000 cps
  • 20 MHz = 20 × 1,000,000 = 20,000,000 cps
  • 100 MHz = 100 × 1,000,000 = 100,000,000 cps
