millivolt to microvolt
Convert millivolt (mV) to microvolt (μV). Use an editable voltage converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 mV = 1,000 μV
Conversion formula
One millivolt equals 1,000 microvolt. Multiply your value in millivolt by this factor to get microvolt. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 millivolt:5 × 1,000 = 5,000 μV

About these measurements
Voltage is electric potential difference.
The base reference used here is the volt. One millivolt is 0.001 base units; one microvolt is 0.000001 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 mV to μV?
Multiply the quantity in mV by 1,000. You can also type the value into the converter above.
Can I reverse the conversion?
Yes. Use the swap button or open the microvolt to millivolt converter.
