Convert Second to Microsecond

1 second = 1,000,000 microsecond (µs). Type any value below to convert second to microsecond both ways — it runs entirely in your browser.

Second to Microsecond conversion formula

To convert second to microsecond, multiply by 1,000,000:

microsecond = second × 1,000,000

Going the other way, 1 microsecond = 0.000001 second, so second = microsecond × 0.000001.

About second and microsecond

Second: The second is the SI base unit of time. Everyday durations, timeouts and stopwatch readings are usually measured in seconds.

Microsecond: A microsecond is one-millionth of a second (1 s = 1,000,000 µs; 1 ms = 1,000 µs) — used for high-resolution timers and signal timing.

Frequently asked questions

How many microsecond are in 1 second?
1 second = 1,000,000 microsecond (µs).
How do I convert second to microsecond?
Multiply the number of second by 1,000,000. For example, 10 second = 10 × 1,000,000 = 10,000,000 microsecond.
How many second are in 1 microsecond?
1 microsecond = 0.000001 second.
Which is bigger, second or microsecond?
1 second equals 1,000,000 microsecond, so a second is the larger unit.
