Megahertz to Cycles per second Converter
1 megahertz (MHz) equals 1,000,000 cycles per second (cps).
Quick answer
- 1 megahertz = 1,000,000 cycles per second
- 1 cycle per second = 0.000001 megahertz
- Formula: cps = MHz × 1,000,000
1 megahertz = 1,000,000 cycles per second
How to convert megahertz to cycles per second
cps = MHz × 1,000,000
To convert megahertz to cycles per second, multiply the number of megahertz by 1,000,000.
Example: 10 MHz to cps
- Start with the value in megahertz: 10 MHz.
- Multiply by 1,000,000: 10 × 1,000,000 = 10,000,000.
- Result: 10 megahertz = 10,000,000 cycles per second.
Going the other way, 1 cycle per second = 0.000001 megahertz, so to convert cycles per second back to megahertz you divide by the same number. See cycles per second to megahertz.

What is a megahertz?
The megahertz is a million hertz. It is used for FM radio (88–108 MHz), TV and older computer clock speeds.
What is a cycle per second?
Cycles per second was the name for the hertz before the SI adopted "hertz" in 1960; older radio and electronics books use cps and kc (kilocycles).
