How to convert

Exact conversion factors in both directions, plus a worked example.

1 A = 1000 mA

1 mA = 0.001 A

To convert ampere to milliampere, multiply by 1000.

To convert milliampere to ampere, multiply by 0.001.

Example: convert 10 A to mA

10 × 1000 = 10000 mA

About these units

Short background on the units used in this conversion.

Ampere (A)

The ampere (A) is the SI base unit of electric current — one coulomb of charge passing a point per second.

Amperes quantify circuit current, fuse ratings, charger output, and any flow of electric charge in conductors.

Milliampere (mA)

The milliampere (mA) equals 0.001 ampere — the everyday unit on battery labels, LED specs, and low-power electronics.

Milliamperes appear on coin-cell datasheets, USB charging labels, and sensor current-draw specifications.

Frequently asked questions

How many milliamperes are in one ampere?
One ampere equals 1,000 milliamperes. Multiply your amperes value by 1,000 to convert to milliamperes.
What is the conversion formula?
mA = A × 1,000

The reverse is A = mA × 0.001, using the same exact factors as this converter.
Is this Ampere to Milliampere converter private?
