Convert Mebibytes per second to Mebibits per second
Convert Mebibytes per second (MiB/s) to Mebibits per second (Mibit/s) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
Mibit/s = MiB/s × 8
About Mebibytes per second
Mebibyte per second (MiB/s) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 B/s (IEC 80000-13). Used in Linux fio/dd benchmark output. Optical disc speeds: CD-ROM 1× = 150 KiB/s; 52× ≈ 7.62 MiB/s; Blu-ray 1× ≈ 4.39 MiB/s; 12× Blu-ray ≈ 52.73 MiB/s. SATA II effective throughput ≈ 286 MiB/s. microSD A1 spec = 10 MB/s ≈ 9.54 MiB/s. 1 MiB/s = 1,048,576 B/s = 8 Mibit/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.
