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

Microsecond
A microsecond is a unit of time equal to one millionth of a second (10^-6 seconds).
History/Origin
The microsecond was introduced in the 20th century as part of the metric system to measure very short time intervals, especially in electronics and computing.
Current Use
Microseconds are used in various fields such as computing, telecommunications, and physics to measure very brief durations, including processor speeds, signal timings, and scientific experiments.
Picosecond
A picosecond is a unit of time equal to one trillionth of a second (10^-12 seconds).
History/Origin
The picosecond was introduced as a standard unit of time measurement in the 20th century, primarily used in physics and electronics to measure extremely short time intervals, especially in laser science and high-speed electronics.
Current Use
Picoseconds are used in fields such as physics, telecommunications, and electronics to measure ultrafast processes, signal delays, and the duration of events at the atomic and subatomic levels.
