Centihenries to nanohenries converter
Convert centihenries (cH) to nanohenries (nH). Calculate any value, follow the unit-factor steps and check a conversion table.
Updated · How we checkUse a decimal point, such as 2.5. Enter a value in cH; the result is in nH.
Formula
Worked example
Convert 1 cH to nH:
1 cH ≈ 10,000,000 nH
Multiply your cH value by the factor above. The calculator uses the full conversion factor before rounding the displayed answer.

What centihenries measure
Centihenries (cH) represent inductance. One unit equals 10^-2 H. One henry is one weber per ampere, equivalently one volt-second per ampere.
Reading the result in nanohenries
Nanohenries (nH) represent inductance. One unit equals 10^-9 H. One henry is one weber per ampere, equivalently one volt-second per ampere.
Where this conversion helps
Compare inductor values in circuit models and component specifications. Inductance may depend on current, frequency and core conditions. A unit conversion does not model those effects.
How the scale changes
The input unit has a factor of 1e-2 H; the output unit has a factor of 1e-9 H. Multiply the entered number by the input factor, then divide by the output factor. The physical quantity stays the same while its numerical representation changes.
Reading very small or large results
Scientific notation keeps very small and large values readable: 2.5e-6 means 0.0000025. The converter calculates with 50 significant digits internally and displays up to 10. Exact unit definitions do not remove uncertainty from the original measurement.
