Conversion Formula
Gibit/s = bit/s × 9.313225746e-10
About Bits per second
Bit per second (bit/s) is the fundamental SI data-rate unit - one binary digit transmitted per second. Shannon's channel capacity C = B log₂(1 + S/N) expresses maximum achievable bit/s. Early RS-232 serial links ran at 110-9,600 bit/s; GSM voice uses 13 kbit/s; a coin-flip entropy source produces 1 bit/s per flip. 1 bit/s = 0.125 B/s = 10⁻³ kbit/s.
About Gibibits per second
Gibibit per second (Gibit/s) = 2³⁰ = 1,073,741,824 bit/s (IEC 80000-13). Preferred over Gbit/s in JEDEC DDR memory bandwidth specs: DDR5-4800 single channel = 38,400 MB/s = 307,200 Mbit/s ≈ 293 Gibit/s. HBM3 per stack = 819 Gbit/s ≈ 763 Gibit/s. LINPACK and memory benchmark literature may use Gibit/s for precision. 1 Gibit/s = 2³⁰ bit/s = 128 MiB/s.
