Convert Abvolt to Nanovolt
Input the number of abvolts you want to convert to nanovolts.
How to Convert Abvolts to Nanovolts
The abvolt and nanovolt are both units of voltage. By definition, 1 abvolt equals exactly 10 nanovolts. This means to convert abvolts to nanovolts, you multiply by 10.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 abV to nanovolts:
We need to convert abvolts to nanovolts
Since 1 abV = 10 nV, multiply by 10
5 × 10 = 50
5 abV = 50 nV

About These Units
Abvolt (abV)
The abvolt (abV) is the CGS electromagnetic unit of voltage equal to 10⁻⁸ volts or 10 nanovolts. One volt = 10⁸ abvolts exactly. Defined so that 1 erg of work moves 1 abcoulomb through 1 abvolt. Found in older electromagnetic theory texts. Impractically small.
Nanovolt (nV)
A nanovolt (nV) equals 10⁻⁹ volts. Measures extremely small signals: SQUID magnetometer outputs, Johnson-Nyquist thermal noise (4 nV/√Hz per kΩ at 300K), precision voltage references. Low-noise amplifier specifications often cite nV/√Hz noise density.
