Convert Femtovolt to Nanovolt
Type the number of femtovolts that you wish to convert to nanovolts.
How to Convert Femtovolts to Nanovolts
The femtovolt and nanovolt are both units of voltage. By definition, 1 nanovolt equals exactly 1000000 femtovolts. This means to convert femtovolts to nanovolts, you divide by 1000000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 fV to nanovolts:
We need to convert femtovolts to nanovolts
Since 1 nV = 1000000 fV, divide by 1000000
5 ÷ 1000000 = 5e-6
5 fV = 5e-6 nV

About These Units
Femtovolt (fV)
A femtovolt (fV) equals 10⁻¹⁵ volts. Theoretical limit of voltage measurement—quantum effects dominate. SQUID magnetometers approach femtovolt sensitivity. Single-electron effects in quantum dots produce femtovolt-scale signals. Beyond practical measurement for most applications.
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.
