Convert millisecond to nanosecond
Please provide values below to convert millisecond [ms] to nanosecond [ns], or Convert nanosecond to millisecond.
1 ms = 1000000 ns. To convert millisecond to nanosecond, multiply the value by 1000000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 ns = 1e-06 ms). Both units measure time and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ms = 1000000 ns
- 1 ns = 1e-06 ms
- 10 ms = 10000000 ns
- 100 ms = 100000000 ns
How to Convert Millisecond to Nanosecond
1 ms = 1000000 ns
Example: convert 15 ms to ns:
15 ms = 15 × 1000000 ns = 15000000 ns

Millisecond
A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time equal to one thousandth of a second.
History/Origin
The millisecond was introduced as a standard unit of time measurement with the development of precise timekeeping and scientific instrumentation in the 20th century, particularly with the advent of electronic clocks and digital technology.
Current Use
Milliseconds are widely used in computing, telecommunications, and scientific measurements to denote very short durations, such as in data processing, network latency, and high-frequency trading.
Nanosecond
A nanosecond is a unit of time equal to one billionth of a second (10^-9 seconds).
History/Origin
The concept of the nanosecond emerged with the development of high-precision time measurement in the 20th century, particularly with advancements in electronics and computing technology that required measuring extremely short time intervals.
Current Use
Nanoseconds are used in various fields such as computing (e.g., measuring processor speeds and memory access times), telecommunications, and scientific research to quantify very short durations.
