Convert Milliohms to Kilohms
Convert Milliohms (mΩ) to Kilohms (kΩ) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kΩ = mΩ × 1.000000000e-6
About Milliohms
The milliohm (mΩ) equals 10⁻³ Ω, the scale of precision current-sensing shunts, relay contacts, and PCB trace resistance. Current-sensing shunts of 1-10 mΩ allow high-current measurement by detecting the millivolt drop they produce; electrical continuity standards flag connections above a few milliohms; DC winding resistance of large motor coils is typically 0.1-10 mΩ. 1 mΩ = 10⁻³ Ω = 10³ µΩ.
About Kilohms
The kilohm (kΩ) equals 10³ Ω, covering the most common range of discrete resistors in electronics. Pull-up and pull-down resistors are typically 1-10 kΩ; potentiometer tracks run 1-100 kΩ; input-bias resistors in transistor amplifiers and voltage-divider networks are almost always in the kilohm range. 1 kΩ = 10³ Ω = 10⁻³ MΩ.
