Convert electrical units by family and calculate voltage, current, resistance, power, and energy with context values.
Context values
Some unit families need one extra value for a physically accurate result.
Nanovolt is 1e-9 volt units.
Result = input x 1e-15 / 1e-9.

About Converting Femtovolts to Nanovolts
Femtovolt and Nanovolt both belong to the electricity family — voltage, current, resistance, power, or energy — units that show up constantly when working across the different standards used by household wiring (120V/240V depending on region), automotive electrical systems (12V/24V), and electronics design. Specifically: Femtovolt is 1e-15 volt units, and nanovolt is 1e-9 volt units.
Formula
nanovolts = femtovolts × 0.000001
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 femtovolt equals 1e-15 base units, and 1 nanovolt equals 1e-9 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct femtovolt-to-nanovolt factor of 0.000001.
Simple example
1 fV × 0.000001 = 0.000001 nV
1 femtovolt = 0.000001 nanovolts.
Real-world example
120 fV × 0.000001 = 0.00012 nV
120 femtovolts = 0.00012 nanovolts.

Reverse conversion: Nanovolt to Femtovolt
0.000001 nV × 1000000 = 1 fV
0.000001 nanovolts = 1 femtovolt.
femtovolts = nanovolts × 1000000

Frequently asked questions
How many nanovolts are in 1 femtovolt?
1 femtovolt equals 0.000001 nanovolts, using the exact defined conversion factor rather than an estimate.
How do I convert femtovolt to nanovolt?
Multiply the femtovolt value by 0.000001. The converter above does this instantly to whatever precision you set.
How do I convert nanovolt back to femtovolt?
Use the reverse factor: 1 nanovolt equals 1,000,000 femtovolts. You can also use the swap control in the converter above to flip the direction instantly.
What is a femtovolt?
Femtovolt (fV) is a unit of electricity.
What is a nanovolt?
Nanovolt (nV) is a unit of electricity.
Is the femtovolt to nanovolt conversion exact?
Yes. Both femtovolt and nanovolt are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 0.000001 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between voltage, current, and resistance?
Voltage (volts) is the electrical potential difference driving current through a circuit. Current (amperes) is the rate of flow of electric charge. Resistance (ohms) is how much a component opposes that flow. They're related by Ohm's law (V = I × R), but they are distinct physical quantities, and this page converts between units of just one of them.
