Microcoulomb (µC)
The microcoulomb (µC) equals 10⁻⁶ coulomb — used for small charge transfers in sensors and electrostatic measurements.
Microcoulombs appear in piezo charge output, ESD events, and precision coulometry at sub-mill coulomb levels.

Short background on the units used in this conversion.
The microcoulomb (µC) equals 10⁻⁶ coulomb — used for small charge transfers in sensors and electrostatic measurements.
Microcoulombs appear in piezo charge output, ESD events, and precision coulometry at sub-mill coulomb levels.
The coulomb (C) is the SI unit of electric charge — one ampere of current for one second (A·s).
Coulombs quantify capacitor charge, electrostatic charge transfer, and total charge moved in a circuit over time.
C = µC × 0.000001µC = C × 1,000,000, using the same exact factors as this converter.
