How to Convert Milliwatts to Microwatts
To convert a measurement in milliwatts to a measurement in microwatts, multiply the power by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 microwatts/milliwatt.
Since one milliwatt is equal to 1,000 microwatts, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The power in microwatts is equal to the power in milliwatts multiplied by 1,000.
How Many Microwatts Are in a Milliwatt?
There are 1,000 microwatts in a milliwatt, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 mW = 1,000 µW
Milliwatts and microwatts are both units used to measure power. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
What is a Milliwatt?
One milliwatt is the power equal to 1/1,000 of a watt, or the energy consumption at a rate of 1/1,000 of a joule per second.
The milliwatt is a multiple of the watt, which is the SI derived unit for power. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10-3. Milliwatts can be abbreviated as mW; for example, 1 milliwatt can be written as 1 mW.

What is a Microwatt?
One microwatt is the power equal to 1/1,000,000 of a watt, or the energy consumption at a rate of 1/1,000,000 of a joule per second.
The microwatt is a multiple of the watt, which is the SI derived unit for power. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10-6. Microwatts can be abbreviated as µW; for example, 1 microwatt can be written as 1 µW.
