Frequently asked questions
What is the source unit in this conversion?
The source unit is the deciwatt (dW). A deciwatt is 0.1 watt units.
What is the destination unit in this conversion?
The destination unit is the nanowatt (nW). A nanowatt is 1e-09 watt units.
How do I convert deciwatts to nanowatts?
Multiply the deciwatt value by 100000000 to get nanowatt. For example, 1 dW × 100000000 = 100000000 nW.
Is the deciwatts to nanowatts conversion exact?
Yes. Both units are defined by fixed numeric relationships to the watt, so the conversion factor used here, 100000000, is exact.
Where is this conversion commonly used?
It is used when comparing power ratings expressed in deciwatts against equipment, engines, or specifications rated in nanowatts.

About this conversion
This page converts deciwatts (dW) into nanowatts (nW), two units used to describe power, the rate at which energy is transferred or work is done.
A deciwatt is 0.1 watt units.
A nanowatt is 1e-09 watt units.
The formula is nW = dW × 100000000, derived from each unit's fixed relationship to the watt, the SI unit of power.
Because both units are defined by exact numeric relationships to the watt, this conversion is exact rather than approximate.
