How to use it

  1. Type the value in the hertz box.
  2. Read the result in cycles per minute as you type, and pick the precision you need.
  3. Swap the direction to convert back, or copy the result.

How it is calculated

cpm = Hz × 60

Multiply the value in hertz by 60 to get cycles per minute.

Example

To convert 25 Hz to cycles per minute: 25 × 60 = 1,500 cpm.

About the units

Hertz
The hertz is the SI unit of frequency, one cycle per second, equal to the reciprocal second (s⁻¹).
Cycle per minute
One cycle per minute is exactly 1/60 hertz, used for slow vibrations and repeating motions in machinery.

Limits and caveats

  • Results are rounded for display and computed with the browser's floating point precision (about 15 significant digits).
  • Both unit factors are exact by their official definitions.

Questions about this tool

How many cycles per minute are in one hertz?

1 Hz = 60 cpm exactly.

How do I convert hertz to cycles per minute?

Use cpm = Hz × 60. For example, 25 Hz = 1,500 cpm.

How many hertz are in one cycle per minute?

1 cpm = 0.0166667 Hz.

How many hertz is a 3.5 GHz processor?

3.5 GHz is 3500 MHz or 3.5 billion hertz, so the processor clock ticks 3.5 billion times per second. Clock speed alone does not decide performance; core count and design matter too.

How do I convert BPM to hertz?

Divide beats per minute by 60, so a tempo of 120 BPM is 2 Hz, two beats per second. The same works for heart rate: 72 beats per minute is 1.2 Hz.
