### Remarks

The following example demonstrates how to use `GetCpuTimerFrequency` to convert timestamps data to seconds.

### Examples

```csharp
using UnityEngine;

class Example
{
    public static double TimestampToMilliseconds(ulong timestamp)
    {
         return (timestamp * 1000.0) / FrameTimingManager.GetCpuTimerFrequency();
    }

    public static double TimestampToSeconds(ulong timestamp)
    {
         return (timestamp * 1000.0 * 1000.0) / FrameTimingManager.GetCpuTimerFrequency();
    }
}
```
