What this tool does
Convert microvolts to volts, millivolts, nanovolts, picovolts and other voltage units. Type an amount in microvolts, choose the units, and the tool converts it to millivolts. It offers 10 voltage units and also shows the same amount in the others.
Inputs
- Value: A number.
- From: Choose one from 10 options, including Gigavolt, Megavolt, Kilovolt, Volt, Millivolt, Microvolt. Starts as Microvolt.
- To: Choose one of the same 10 units as "From". Starts as Millivolt.
How to use
- Enter the amount you want to convert.
- Choose the unit to convert from and the unit to convert to.
- Read the result: the converted amount and the same amount in the other units. It appears once every required field has a valid value.
Worked examples
Conversions from microvolts to millivolts:
- 1 µV = 0.001 mV
- 5 µV = 0.005 mV
- 10 µV = 0.01 mV
- 50 µV = 0.05 mV
- 100 µV = 0.1 mV
Multiply the number of microvolts by 0.001 to get millivolts. Both units are exact definitions, so 0.001 is the exact factor: 1 µV = 0.001 mV.

Limitations
- Converts the unit of a voltage only. It does not work out voltage from current, resistance or power.
- Abvolt and statvolt are historical CGS units, listed for completeness.
FAQs
- Q: How many millivolts is one microvolt?
- A: One microvolt is 0.001 millivolt, or 0.000001 volt. Pick microvolt as the From unit and millivolt as the To unit to see it for any value.
- Q: Can I convert the other way, from millivolts to microvolts?
- A: Yes. Choose millivolt in the From box and microvolt in the To box. One millivolt is 1,000 microvolts.
- Q: What are abvolts and statvolts?
- A: They are voltage units of the older CGS electromagnetic and electrostatic systems. One abvolt is exactly 0.00000001 volt (10⁻⁸ V). One statvolt is about 299.792458 volts.
