Centihertz
cHz
Definition
The Centihertz is a unit of frequency equal to 10^-2 hertz, representing frequencies in the very low sub-audio range. It corresponds to wavelengths in the millions of kilometers range and is used in scientific instruments, low-frequency oscillators, and specialized measurement applications.
History/Origin
The centihertz unit was established as part of the SI system to provide intermediate frequency measurements between the base hertz and smaller frequency units. It represents frequencies that are 2 orders of magnitude lower than the base hertz unit, corresponding to wavelengths in the extremely long-wave radio region.
Current Use
Used in scientific instruments, low-frequency oscillators, and specialized measurement applications. It is particularly useful for measuring frequencies in the very low sub-audio range and for understanding the behavior of systems that operate at extremely low frequencies.

Cycle per Second
cps
Definition
The Cycle per Second is a unit of frequency equal to one hertz, representing one complete cycle of a periodic phenomenon per second. It is an older unit that was commonly used before the adoption of the hertz as the SI unit of frequency, and it is still used in some contexts where the concept of "cycles" is more intuitive than "hertz."
History/Origin
The cycle per second unit was widely used in early electronics and radio technology before the adoption of the hertz as the SI unit of frequency. It represents the intuitive concept of counting the number of complete cycles of a periodic phenomenon that occur in one second, making it easy to understand and visualize.
Current Use
Still used in some contexts where the concept of "cycles" is more intuitive than "hertz," particularly in audio engineering, electronics, and educational settings. It is equivalent to the hertz but may be preferred in certain applications where the cyclical nature of the phenomenon is emphasized.
