centihenry to gigahenry
Convert centihenry (cH) to gigahenry (GH). Use an editable inductance converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 cH = 1e-11 GH
Conversion formula
One centihenry equals 1e-11 gigahenry. Multiply your value in centihenry by this factor to get gigahenry. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 centihenry:5 × 1e-11 = 5e-11 GH

About these measurements
Inductance describes the relationship between changing current and induced voltage.
The base reference used here is the henry. One centihenry is 0.01 base units; one gigahenry is 1,000,000,000 base units.
Important distinctions
A prefix changes only the scale of the inductance unit.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert cH to GH?
Multiply the quantity in cH by 1e-11. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the gigahenry to centihenry converter.
