How to convert microamperes to amperes
A = µA × 0.000001Multiply the value in microamperes by 0.000001. To go the other way, multiply by 1,000,000 (or divide by 0.000001).
A microampere is smaller than an ampere: it takes 1,000,000 microamperes to make one ampere.

About the units
Microampere (µA)
The microampere (µA) is a unit of electric current in the International System of Units (SI). One microampere equals 0.000001 amperes (A).
Ampere (A)
The SI base unit of current: 1/(1.602176634 × 10⁻¹⁹) elementary charges per second.
Frequently asked questions
How many amperes are in one microampere?
There are 0.000001 amperes in one microampere, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert microamperes to amperes?
Multiply the number of microamperes by 0.000001. For example, 10 µA × 0.000001 = 0.00001 A.
How many microamperes are in one ampere?
One ampere equals 1,000,000 microamperes. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 0.000001.
What is 10 microamperes in amperes?
10 µA = 0.00001 A.
Is this µA to A converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
