Convert millisecond to microsecond
Please provide values below to convert millisecond [ms] to microsecond [µs], or Convert microsecond to millisecond.
1 ms = 1000 µs. To convert millisecond to microsecond, multiply the value by 1000; to go the other way, divide by it (1 µs = 0.001 ms). Both units measure time and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ms = 1000 µs
- 1 µs = 0.001 ms
- 10 ms = 10000 µs
- 100 ms = 100000 µs
How to Convert Millisecond to Microsecond
1 ms = 1000 µs
Example: convert 15 ms to µs:
15 ms = 15 × 1000 µs = 15000 µs

Millisecond
A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time equal to one thousandth of a second.
History/Origin
The millisecond was introduced as a standard unit of time measurement with the development of precise timekeeping and scientific instrumentation in the 20th century, particularly with the advent of electronic clocks and digital technology.
Current Use
Milliseconds are widely used in computing, telecommunications, and scientific measurements to denote very short durations, such as in data processing, network latency, and high-frequency trading.
Microsecond
A microsecond is a unit of time equal to one millionth of a second (10^-6 seconds).
History/Origin
The microsecond was introduced in the 20th century as part of the metric system to measure very short time intervals, especially in electronics and computing.
Current Use
Microseconds are used in various fields such as computing, telecommunications, and physics to measure very brief durations, including processor speeds, signal timings, and scientific experiments.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 millisecond in microsecond?
1 millisecond (ms) = 1000 microsecond (µs).
How do you convert millisecond to microsecond?
Multiply the millisecond value by 1000. For example, 25 ms × 1000 = 25000 µs.
What is 10 millisecond in microsecond?
10 ms = 10000 µs.
Which unit is larger, the millisecond or the microsecond?
The millisecond is the larger unit: 1 ms = 1000 µs.
