How to Convert Microwatts to Watts

Convert microwatts to watts with this simple formula:

watts = microwatts × 1.0E-6

Converting a microwatt power measurement to a watt measurement involves multiplying the power by the conversion ratio to find the result. One microwatt is equal to 1.0E-6 watts, so to convert simply multiply by 1.0E-6.

For example, here's how to convert 5 microwatts to watts using the formula above.

5 µW = (5 × 1.0E-6) = 5.0E-6 W

Microwatts and watts are both units used to measure power. Learn more about power and find more power measurement conversion calculators. Microwatts are a power measurement and can be abbreviated as µW, for example 1 µW. Watts are a power measurement and can be abbreviated as W, for example 1 W.

A watt is equal to the rate of energy of one joule per second and is a standard unit of power measurement under the International System of Units (SI). You might also find our watts to amps calculator or our watts to kilowatt-hours calculator useful.
