What is Hz to kHz Converter?
This tool converts Hertz (Hz) to Kilohertz (kHz) quickly and accurately. Whether you're working with electronics, audio, video, or mechanical systems, this converter provides instant results.
Understanding the Units
Hertz (Hz): The SI base unit of frequency. One Hertz equals one cycle per second. Used universally in science and engineering.
Kilohertz (kHz): One thousand Hertz. Common in audio sampling rates, AM radio broadcasting, and ultrasonic applications.
Common Applications
- Electronics: Converting CPU speeds and radio frequencies
- Audio: Working with sampling rates and sound frequencies
- Wireless: WiFi, Bluetooth, and mobile network frequencies
Privacy
All conversions happen in your browser. No data is stored or sent to any server.
How to Use
Converting Hz to kHz takes just seconds:
- Enter the Hz value in the first input field
- View the kHz result instantly in the second field
- Copy the result using the copy button if needed
Reverse Conversion
Need to convert kHz to Hz instead? Simply click the swap button (↔) to reverse the conversion direction, or type in the kHz field directly.
Practical Example
A 20000 Hz audio frequency equals 20.00 kHz. This helps when working with upper hearing limit.
Tips for Accurate Conversions
- Use decimal points for precise values
- Large numbers are automatically formatted with thousand separators
- Results update instantly as you type

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I convert Hz to kHz?
To convert Hertz to Kilohertz, multiply the Hz value by 0.001000. For example, 1 Hz = 0.001000 kHz.
What is the formula for Hz to kHz?
The conversion formula is: kHz = Hz × 0.001000. To convert back: Hz = kHz × 1,000.
