Voltage Converter

Voltage Converter lets you convert voltage through the volt: value × source factor / target factor. Enter your own values or load the worked example.

Method and calculation

Convert voltage through the volt: value × source factor / target factor. Factors relative to volt: V = 1; mV = 0.001; µV = 0.000001; kV = 1000; MV = 1000000.

Inputs and settings

Voltage Converter accepts Value (minimum 0); From unit (V, mV, µV, kV, MV); To unit (V, mV, µV, kV, MV).

Worked example

Voltage Converter example — Value: 1; From unit: "V"; To unit: "mV". Computed output: { "value": 1000, "unit": "mV", "baseValue": 1, "baseUnit": "volt" }

Output and limitations

Voltage is electric potential difference between two points. Millivolts are common for sensor signals, while kilovolts describe high-voltage equipment. Decibel-voltage units are excluded because their logarithmic references differ from the linear metric prefixes listed here.

Voltage Converter FAQs

Voltage Converter applies the following rule to your input: Convert voltage through the volt: value × source factor / target factor. The worked example on this page uses the same processor as the result button.
Voltage Converter has these boundaries: The voltage factors are fixed conversions. Unit labels specify the convention; no live data is fetched. Start by checking the value field against the units or format shown.
Voltage Converter provides this sample: { "value": 1000, "unit": "mV", "baseValue": 1, "baseUnit": "volt" }. Use the sample button to reproduce it, then replace the inputs with your own values.
