What is the Time Converter?

A time converter changes a duration between tiny and huge units, from nanoseconds to centuries.

Why use this calculator?

Programming timeouts, project planning and science all express time in different scales, so a converter saves manual arithmetic.

How to use it

  1. Enter the time value.
  2. Choose the source and target units.
  3. Read the converted duration.

Formula

Every unit is defined relative to the second.
A month uses the average length of 30.44 days and a year uses 365.25 days, so calendar-exact conversions may differ slightly.
