About Microamperes per square centimetre
The microampere per square centimetre (µA/cm²) equals 10⁻⁶ A / 10⁻⁴ m² = 0.01 A/m². Active corrosion current density of mild steel in aerated salt water is 10-100 µA/cm²; exchange current density of Cd/Cd2+ is ≈15 µA/cm²; leakage current density of forward-biased silicon diodes at very low bias is in the µA/cm² range. 1 µA/cm² = 0.01 A/m² = 10 mA/m².
About Amperes per square inch
The ampere per square inch (A/in²) equals 1 / (0.0254)² A/m² ≈ 1550 A/m², used in US power semiconductor datasheets and electroforming specifications. JEDEC JESD22 and IPC standards specify maximum allowable current density in bond wires and copper interconnects in A/in²; electroforming of micro-components targets 0.5-5 A/in². 1 A/in² ≈ 1550 A/m² = 0.155 A/cm².
