Frequency may refer to any of the following:
In general, frequency is a measurement of how often something happens. In science and technology, frequency is measured in Hz (hertz).
Concerning a CPU, frequency refers to the processor’s operational clock cycles per second. The frequency of most modern CPUs is measured in GHz, or billions of cycles per second.
A frequency is the number of oscillations in alternating electrical current each second.
The term frequency may also refer to cycles per second of an electromagnetic wave, such as a sound wave or a light wave. The frequency of light determines its color, as seen by the human eye. Similarly, the frequency of sound determines its pitch, as heard by the human ear.
