About time units
Time units measure durations. This converter supports nanoseconds (ns), microseconds (us), milliseconds (ms), seconds (s), minutes (min), hours (h) and days (day).
Quick overview
- Nanosecond (ns) — 1 ns = 1e-9 s.
- Microsecond (μs / us) — 1 μs = 1e-6 s.
- Millisecond (ms) — 1 ms = 1e-3 s.
- Second (s) — base unit.
- Minute (min) — 60 s.
- Hour (h) — 3600 s.
- Day (day) — 86400 s.
How conversion works
All conversions are performed via the base unit (seconds). Example: 1500 ms → 1.5 s → 0.025 min.
