Method and calculation
Convert time units through the second: value × source factor / target factor. Factors relative to second: ns = 1e-9; µs = 0.000001; ms = 0.001; s = 1; min = 60; h = 3600; day = 86400; week = 604800.
Inputs and settings
Time Units Converter accepts Value (minimum 0); From unit (ns, µs, ms, s, min, h, day, week); To unit (ns, µs, ms, s, min, h, day, week).
Worked example
Time Units Converter example — Value: 1; From unit: "ns"; To unit: "µs". Computed output: { "value": 0.001, "unit": "µs", "baseValue": 1e-9, "baseUnit": "second" }
Output and limitations
The duration table uses fixed seconds, minutes, hours, days and weeks. Calendar months and years are excluded because their lengths depend on dates and conventions. A day here is exactly 86400 seconds rather than a local daylight-saving interval.
