Is there a way to convert .NET DateTime.Ticks to UTC using PHP?

The value of this property represents the number of 100-nanosecond intervals that have elapsed since 12:00:00 midnight, January 1, 0001

This is how the value actually looks like 633943144490000000

oh, yeah. divide it I mean. by 1000000
and then convert to unix timestamp
which is number of seconds elapsed since 12:00:00 midnight, January 1, 1970

With numbers of this size, it might be worth noting that the math extensions BC and GMP may come in handy.
