Convert Abhenries to Nanohenries

Convert Abhenries (abH) to Nanohenries (nH) instantly and accurately.

Conversion Formula

nH = abH × 1

About Abhenries

The abhenry (abH) is the inductance unit of the CGS-EMU system, equal to 1 abΩ × 1 s = 10⁻⁹ Ω × 1 s = 10⁻⁹ H, exactly equal to 1 nH in SI. It appears in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century electromagnetic engineering texts alongside abohms and abamperes; the abhenry was the standard inductance unit in EMU telegraphy and early radio literature. 1 abH = 10⁻⁹ H = 1 nH.

About Nanohenries

The nanohenry (nH) equals 10⁻⁹ H, the everyday unit for RF inductors, PCB trace inductance, and package parasitics. A 10 mm PCB microstrip trace is about 10 nH; surface-mount RF chokes range from 1 to 1 000 nH; bond-wire lead inductances are 1-20 nH; resonant LC tank circuits for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi use inductors of 1-100 nH. 1 nH = 10⁻³ µH = 10⁻⁹ H.
