Nanovolt Converters

Convert nanovolts to volts, millivolts, microvolts, picovolts and other voltage units.

What this tool does

Convert nanovolts to volts, millivolts, microvolts, picovolts and other voltage units. Type an amount in nanovolts, choose the units, and the tool converts it to volts. It offers 10 voltage units and also shows the same amount in the others.

Inputs

  • Value: A number.
  • From: Choose one from 10 options, including Gigavolt, Megavolt, Kilovolt, Volt, Millivolt, Microvolt. Starts as Nanovolt.
  • To: Choose one of the same 10 units as "From". Starts as Volt.

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 nanovolts to volts:

  • 1 nV = 0.000000001 V
  • 5 nV = 0.000000005 V
  • 10 nV = 0.00000001 V
  • 50 nV = 0.00000005 V
  • 100 nV = 0.0000001 V

Multiply the number of nanovolts by 0.000000001 to get volts. Both units are exact definitions, so 0.000000001 is the exact factor: 1 nV = 0.000000001 V.

Limitations

  • Converts the unit of a voltage only. It does not work out voltage from current, resistance or power.
  • Abvolt and statvolt are historical CGS units, listed for completeness.

FAQs

Q: How many volts is one nanovolt?
A: One nanovolt is 0.000000001 volt (10⁻⁹ V, one billionth of a volt). Pick nanovolt as the From unit and volt as the To unit to see it for any value.
Q: Can I convert the other way, from volts to nanovolts?
A: Yes. Choose volt in the From box and nanovolt in the To box. One volt is 1,000,000,000 nanovolts.
Q: What are abvolts and statvolts?
A: They are voltage units of the older CGS electromagnetic and electrostatic systems. One abvolt is exactly 0.00000001 volt (10⁻⁸ V). One statvolt is about 299.792458 volts.
