Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (also called epoch time or POSIX time) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC. It is widely used in programming, databases, and APIs as a universal time representation.

What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds timestamps?

A seconds-based Unix timestamp is typically 10 digits (e.g., 1700000000), while a milliseconds-based timestamp is 13 digits (e.g., 1700000000000). JavaScript Date.now() returns milliseconds, while most Unix systems use seconds.

What is the Year 2038 problem?

The Year 2038 problem occurs because 32-bit systems store Unix timestamps as a signed 32-bit integer, which overflows on January 19, 2038. Modern 64-bit systems are not affected.

How does the auto-detect feature work?

If the input number has 13 or more digits, it is treated as milliseconds. Numbers with 10 or fewer digits are treated as seconds. Non-numeric input is parsed as a date string.

What timezone is used for conversion?

Unix timestamps are always in UTC. The tool shows both UTC and your local timezone based on your browser settings.

Pertanyaan Umum

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC (the Unix epoch). It's a universal way to represent time in computing.

What's the difference between seconds and milliseconds?

Unix timestamps in seconds are 10 digits (e.g., 1700000000), while milliseconds are 13 digits (e.g., 1700000000000). JavaScript uses milliseconds, most systems use seconds.

Does this tool handle timezones?

Yes. The tool shows both UTC and your local timezone when converting timestamps, so you can see the exact time in both.
