Kilohertz to Megahertz
1 kHz = 0.001 MHz
How to convert kilohertz to megahertz
Enter the value in kilohertz (kHz) above and the equivalent in megahertz (MHz) updates as you type. This conversion comes up when audio work: musical pitch and equipment specs (Hz, kHz).
Typical situations: radio: broadcast bands in kHz/MHz; electronics: mains frequency (50 Hz vs 60 Hz countries) and CPU clocks (GHz).
You can also convert in the other direction: Megahertz to Kilohertz
Kilohertz to Megahertz conversion table
| Kilohertz (kHz) | Megahertz (MHz) |
|---|---|
| 1 | 0.001 |
| 2 | 0.002 |
| 5 | 0.005 |
| 10 | 0.01 |
| 25 | 0.025 |
| 50 | 0.05 |
| 100 | 0.1 |
Watch out for
- kHz vs MHz in radio: a factor of 1,000; FM is around 100 MHz, AM around 1 MHz
- Mains frequency does not affect voltage, which is why 50/60 Hz devices are often but not always interchangeable
