Seconds to microseconds converter
Microseconds (µs)
1 second = 1,000,000 microseconds
How to convert seconds to microseconds
µs = s × 1000000
Multiply the number of seconds by 1000000 to get microseconds. Going the other way, divide by 1000000 (or multiply by 0.000001).
One second is exactly defined as 1000000 microseconds (to 12 significant figures), and one microsecond is 0.000001 seconds.
Worked examples
- Convert 5 seconds: 5 × 1000000 = 5,000,000 5,000,000 microseconds.
- Convert 12.5 seconds: 12.5 × 1000000 = 12,500,000 12,500,000 microseconds.
- Convert 250 seconds: 250 × 1000000 = 250,000,000 250,000,000 microseconds.
