5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why convert volts to millivolts?
A: Millivolts are more practical when working with small voltages commonly found in sensor outputs or biological signals.

Q2: What is the difference between V and mV?
A: 1 volt equals 1000 millivolts. The millivolt is a smaller unit better suited for precise measurements.

Q3: Can I convert millivolts back to volts?
A: Yes, simply divide the millivolt value by 1000 to get volts.

Q4: What are typical millivolt ranges?
A: Many sensors output in the 0-100mV range. EEG signals are typically 0.1-1mV, while ECG signals are 1-5mV.

Q5: How precise is this conversion?
A: The conversion is mathematically exact. Precision depends on your input measurement accuracy.
