Formula
Formula
mV = nV × 1e-6
Multiply any value in nanovolts by 1e-6 to obtain the value in millivolts.
Worked example
Convert 1.00000e+6 nV to mV.
- 01Start with 1.00000e+6 nV.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1.00000e+6 × 1e-6 = 1 mV.
Result1.00000e+6 nV = 1 mV

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from nV to mV?
1 nV equals 1e-6 mV. To convert, multiply the value in nanovolts by 1e-6.
How do I convert 1 nV to mV?
1 nV = 1e-6 mV. For any value, multiply by 1e-6.
How do I convert mV back to nV?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1000000. So 1 mV = 1.00000e+6 nV.
When would I need to convert nanovolt to millivolt?
Voltage conversions between nV and mV are routine in instrumentation, power-system analysis and electronics design. Volts and kilovolts dominate power-system documents (LV/MV/HV switchgear, motor ratings), while millivolts and microvolts appear on transducer datasheets, thermocouple signal chains and low-level analog measurements.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
