Kilohertz to Hertz (kHz to Hz)
Convert kilohertz to hertz: 1 kHz = 1000 Hz. Exact conversion factor, formula, 22-row table and worked examples, with JSON API and MCP access.
Formula
1 kHz = 1000 Hz
hertz = kilohertz × 1000 — reverse: kilohertz = hertz × 0.001
The factor is derived from the SI definitions of both units (base unit: Hz) as listed in NIST SP 811; results on this page are shown to 6 significant figures, the API returns up to 12.
Worked examples
- 5 kHz = 5000 Hz
- 12.5 kHz = 12500 Hz
- 100 kHz = 100000 Hz

FAQ
How many hertz are in one kilohertz?
1 kHz = 1000 Hz. The factor comes from the SI definitions of both units (NIST SP 811 / BIPM), so it is exact or correct to at least 10 significant figures.
What is the formula to convert kilohertz to hertz?
Multiply the value in kilohertz by 1000: hertz = kilohertz × 1000. For example, 5 kHz = 5000 Hz.
How do I convert hertz back to kilohertz?
Multiply by the inverse factor 0.001 (kilohertz = hertz × 0.001), or use the hertz-to-kilohertz page.
