Milliamps to Amps Converter

2000 milliamps = 2 amps — type either value and the other converts live.

Milliamps ⇄ Amps converter

A = mA ÷ 1000 · mA = A × 1000

How the milliamps converter works

“Milli” means one-thousandth, so one milliamp is 1/1000 of an amp. To convert milliamps to amps you divide by 1000; to convert amps back to milliamps you multiply by 1000.

Both fields are live — type in milliamps and the amps field updates instantly, or type in amps and milliamps follows. The math is exact: there is no rounding on whole-number conversions.

A = mA ÷ 1000 · mA = A × 1000
