Convert Microvolts to Nanovolts
Enter the number of microvolts that you want to convert to nanovolts.
How to Convert Microvolts to Nanovolts
The microvolt and nanovolt are both units of voltage. By definition, 1 microvolt equals exactly 1000 nanovolts. This means to convert microvolts to nanovolts, you multiply by 1000.
Formula
Step-by-Step Example
Convert 5 μV to nanovolts:
We need to convert microvolts to nanovolts
Since 1 μV = 1000 nV, multiply by 1000
5 × 1000 = 5000
5 μV = 5000 nV

About These Units
Microvolt (μV)
A microvolt (μV) equals 10⁻⁶ volts. EEG brain signals: 10-100 μV, EMG muscle signals: 50-5000 μV, low-noise amplifier input: 1-10 μV noise floor. Thermocouple resolution: 10-40 μV/°C. Critical for biomedical instrumentation and precision measurement.
Nanovolt (nV)
A nanovolt (nV) equals 10⁻⁹ volts. Measures extremely small signals: SQUID magnetometer outputs, Johnson-Nyquist thermal noise (4 nV/√Hz per kΩ at 300K), precision voltage references. Low-noise amplifier specifications often cite nV/√Hz noise density.
