How to Convert Millisecond to Microsecond

1 millisecond = 1000 microseconds

Microsecond = Millisecond × 1000

Example: 1 ms × 1000 = 1000 µs

Reverse Conversion

To convert microseconds back to milliseconds:

  • Remember, 1 microsecond equals 0.001 milliseconds.
  • To convert 1000 µs to ms, multiply 1000 x 0.001, resulting in 1 ms.

Definition of Millisecond

Definition

ms — The millisecond is a unit of time equal to one thousandth of a second (0.001 s or 10⁻³ s). It is widely used in computing (response times, frame rates), sports timing (sprint finishes, lap times), telecommunications (network latency), and neuroscience (nerve impulse timing).

The millisecond follows standard SI prefix rules: the "milli-" prefix means 1/1,000.

Exact factor
1 ms = 0.001 s (exact)
Examples
  • 1,000 ms = 1 second
  • 16.67 ms = 1 frame at 60 fps
  • 100 ms = typical human reaction time

Frequently Asked Questions

How many microseconds are in one millisecond?

One millisecond equals 1000 microseconds. To convert, multiply the millisecond value by 1000. For the reverse, divide the microsecond value by 1000 (or multiply by 0.001).

What is 10 milliseconds in microseconds?

10 milliseconds = 10000 microseconds. This is one of the most commonly searched conversions for this pair.

Is the millisecond-to-microsecond conversion exact?

Yes. The factor 1000 is exact by international definition, not an approximation. Any imprecision comes only from the original measurement, not the conversion.
