Megahertz Unit | All you need to know

The megahertz (symbol: MHz) is an SI-derived unit of frequency equal to one million (10⁶) hertz. It is widely used to measure the operating frequencies of radio stations, television broadcasts, communication equipment, computer components, and electronic devices. The megahertz uses the SI prefix mega, representing a factor of one million.

One megahertz is equal to 1,000,000 hertz, 1,000 kilohertz, 0.001 gigahertz, 60,000,000 revolutions per minute, and 6,283,185.307 radians per second. The megahertz remains one of the most frequently used units for expressing radio and electronic signal frequencies.
