Convert millijoule/second to microwatt
Please provide values below to convert millijoule/second [mJ/s] to microwatt [µW], or Convert microwatt to millijoule/second.
1 mJ/s = 1000 µW. To convert millijoule/second to microwatt, multiply the value by 1000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 µW = 0.001 mJ/s). Both units measure power and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 mJ/s = 1000 µW
- 1 µW = 0.001 mJ/s
- 10 mJ/s = 10000 µW
- 100 mJ/s = 100000 µW
How to Convert Millijoule/second to Microwatt
1 mJ/s = 1000 µW
Example: convert 15 mJ/s to µW:
15 mJ/s = 15 × 1000 µW = 15000 µW

Millijoule/second
A millijoule per second (mJ/s) is a unit of power equivalent to one millijoule of energy transferred or converted every second.
History/Origin
The unit derives from the joule, the SI unit of energy, and the second, the SI unit of time. It has been used in contexts requiring small power measurements, especially in scientific and engineering applications, with the millijoule being a submultiple of the joule.
Current Use
Millijoule per second is used to measure small power levels in scientific experiments, electronics, and other fields where precise, small-scale power measurement is necessary, often within the context of energy transfer or consumption rates.
Microwatt
A microwatt (µW) is a unit of power equal to one millionth of a watt, used to measure very small amounts of power.
History/Origin
The microwatt was introduced as part of the metric system's effort to provide standardized units for small quantities of power, especially in scientific and technological contexts, gaining prominence with the adoption of the International System of Units (SI).
Current Use
Microwatts are used in fields such as electronics, telecommunications, and biomedical engineering to quantify low power levels in devices, sensors, and circuits.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 millijoule/second in microwatt?
1 millijoule/second (mJ/s) = 1000 microwatt (µW).
How do you convert millijoule/second to microwatt?
