Coulombs to Nanocoulombs Converter

Enter charge in coulombs:

Conversions:

1 Coulomb (C) = 1 × 10⁹ Nanocoulombs (nC)

1 Nanocoulomb (nC) = 1 × 10^-9 Coulombs (C)

Conversion Formula:

Q(nC) = Q(C) × 10⁹

Q(C) = Q(nC) × 10^-9

Example:

Convert 3 coulombs to nanocoulombs:

Q(nC) = 3C × 10⁹ = 3 × 10⁹nC

Conversion Result:

3 coulombs is equal to 3 × 10⁹ nanocoulombs.

1. Introduction

A Coulombs to Nanocoulombs (C to nC) Converter is a tool that converts electric charge values between Coulombs (C) and nanocoulombs (nC). This conversion is essential for:
✅ Electronics & circuit analysis (measuring small charges)

2. Key Definitions

Unit	Symbol	Definition	Scale
Coulomb (C)	C	SI unit of electric charge	Base unit (1 C)
Nanocoulomb (nC)	nC	Subunit of Coulomb	1 nC = 10⁻⁹ C

3. Conversion Formula

Coulombs → Nanocoulombs

$$\text{nC}=\text{C}\times {10}^9$$

Example:

• 1 C = 1 × 10⁹ nC

• 0.000000001 C = 1 nC

Nanocoulombs → Coulombs

$$\text{C}=\text{nC}\times {10}^{-9}$$

Example:

• 500 nC = 500 × 10⁻⁹ = 5 × 10⁻⁷ C (0.5 µC)
