Nanoohm Converters

Convert nanoohms to ohms, milliohms, microohms, kiloohms, megaohms and other resistance units.

What this tool does

Convert nanoohms to ohms, milliohms, microohms, kiloohms, megaohms and other resistance units. Type an amount in nanoohms, choose the units, and the tool converts it to ohms. It offers 9 electrical resistance units and also shows the same amount in the others.

Inputs

  • Value: A number.
  • From: Choose one from 9 options, including Nanoohm, Microohm, Milliohm, Ohm, Kiloohm, Megaohm. Starts as Nanoohm.
  • To: Choose one of the same 9 units as "From". Starts as Ohm.

How to use

  1. Enter the amount you want to convert.
  2. Choose the unit to convert from and the unit to convert to.
  3. Read the result: the converted amount and the same amount in the other units. It appears once every required field has a valid value.

Worked examples

Conversions from nanoohms to ohms:

  • 1 nΩ = 0.000000001 Ω
  • 5 nΩ = 0.000000005 Ω
  • 10 nΩ = 0.00000001 Ω
  • 50 nΩ = 0.00000005 Ω
  • 100 nΩ = 0.0000001 Ω

Multiply the number of nanoohms by 0.000000001 to get ohms. Both units are exact definitions, so 0.000000001 is the exact factor: 1 nΩ = 0.000000001 Ω.

Limitations

  • Converts the unit of a resistance only. It does not work out resistance from voltage, current, length or material.
  • Abohm and statohm are historical CGS units, listed for completeness.

FAQs

Q: How many ohms is one nanoohm?
A: One nanoohm is 0.000000001 ohm (one billionth of an ohm). Pick nanoohm as the From unit and ohm as the To unit to see it for any value.
Q: What are abohms and statohms?
A: They are the resistance units of the older CGS electromagnetic and electrostatic systems. One abohm is exactly 1 nanoohm (10⁻⁹ ohm). One statohm is about 8.99 × 10¹¹ ohms.
Q: Can I convert the other way, from ohms to nanoohms?
A: Yes. Choose ohm in the From box and nanoohm in the To box.
