Meaning
Megahertz (MHz) are a unit of frequency 1,000,000 times larger than the SI Unit; the Hertz.
About Megahertz
- Megahertz are shortened to MHz with an upper case M, an upper case H and a lower case z.
- Mega means one million so there are 1,000,000 Hertzs in a megahertz.
Converting to Megahertz
| Unit | To convert | Megahertz |
| 1 megahertz (1MHz) | Convert to Megahertz x1 | 1MHz |
