Conversion Formula
Mibit/s = bit/s × 9.536743164e-7
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 Mebibits per second
Mebibit per second (Mibit/s) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 bit/s (IEC 80000-13). Used in FPGA-to-memory interface specs and JEDEC memory bus timing documents where bit rates are derived from 2ⁿ clock frequencies. A 100 MHz 8-bit parallel bus = 800 Mibit/s. Contrasted with Mbit/s (= 10⁶ bit/s). 1 Mibit/s = 1,048,576 bit/s ≈ 131 KB/s.
