What This Tool Delivers

The Epoch Time Converter provides precise timestamp conversions between Unix epoch format and human-readable dates with support for multiple precision levels. Essential for log analysis, debugging time-sensitive applications, and cross-platform time synchronization.

Real-time bidirectional conversion handles seconds, milliseconds, microseconds, and nanoseconds precision. Perfect for database debugging, API timestamp validation, and system log analysis requiring exact timing correlation.

Epoch Time Best Practices

Consistent Precision: Always specify whether timestamps use seconds or milliseconds precision. JavaScript uses milliseconds while Unix systems typically use seconds, causing common integration errors.

Store in UTC: Always store epoch timestamps in UTC to avoid timezone confusion. Convert to local time only for display purposes to maintain data consistency across global systems.

Handle Overflow: Consider timestamp limits for your platform. 32-bit systems have a 2038 limit, while some databases have specific timestamp ranges that must be validated.

Debugging Aid: Use epoch converters for debugging time-related issues in logs, APIs, and databases. Compare timestamps across different systems to identify timing discrepancies.

Programming Examples

JavaScript: Date.now() / 1000

Python: time.time()

PHP: time()

Java: System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000
