What to enter
| Input | Meaning and units |
|---|---|
| Value | Enter value using the definition in the method and example. |
| From | Select the unit or currency in which the entered number is currently expressed. |
| To | Select the unit or currency you need for the answer. |
Understanding your result
The converted value describes the same current quantity in the selected target unit. Display rounding does not add precision to the original measurement.
Common mistakes
- Confusing the source and target units, or overlooking a prefix or case-sensitive symbol.
Check your calculation
- Convert to the target unit and then reverse the direction. Within display rounding, you should recover the original value.

How do I convert Nanoamperes to Femtoamperes?
Enter the known measurement and select its source and target units. The converter expresses the same electric current quantity in the target unit, using the stated definitions.
Common uses
- Compare measurements stated in different units.
- Translate a known value before using it in a formula or specification.
How it works
Convert through the shared base quantity using the two defined factors. Prefixes are SI decimal powers. Convert within this quantity only. Conversion changes the unit of a known measurement; it does not calculate another physical quantity or imply a material model. Factors with π or repeating rational values use finite precision; results display up to 12 significant digits. SI prefixes specify powers of ten: femto 10^-15, pico 10^-12, nano 10^-9, micro 10^-6, milli 10^-3, kilo 10^3, mega 10^6, giga 10^9 and tera 10^12. Unit symbols are case-sensitive. The numerical conversion uses the ratio of the source and target scale factors.
Worked example
10 nA equals approximately 10000000 fA. Reverse the units to convert in the other direction.
