microvolt to centivolt
Convert microvolt (μV) to centivolt (cV). Use an editable voltage converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 μV = 0.0001 cV
Conversion formula
One microvolt equals 0.0001 centivolt. Multiply your value in microvolt by this factor to get centivolt. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 microvolt:5 × 0.0001 = 0.0005 cV

About these measurements
Voltage is electric potential difference.
The base reference used here is the volt. One microvolt is 0.000001 base units; one centivolt is 0.01 base units.
Important distinctions
This converts units, not RMS, peak, or peak-to-peak representations.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
Common questions
How do I convert μV to cV?
Multiply the quantity in μV by 0.0001. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the centivolt to microvolt converter.
