About Inductance Units
Henry (H)
The base unit of inductance in the International System of Units (SI). Named after American scientist Joseph Henry.
Millihenry (mH)
One thousandth of a Henry (1 mH = 10⁻³ H). Commonly used in medium-sized inductors.
Microhenry (μH)
One millionth of a Henry (1 μH = 10⁻⁶ H). Frequently used in small inductors and RF circuits.
How to Use the Inductance Converter Tool
Our inductance converter is a powerful yet easy-to-use tool designed for electronics engineers, students, hobbyists, and anyone working with inductors in circuits. This guide will help you make the most of all the features.
Basic Conversion Process
To convert between Henry (H), millihenry (mH), and microhenry (μH):
- Enter your inductance value in the input field
- Select the unit you're converting FROM in the first dropdown
- Select the unit you're converting TO in the second dropdown
- View the instant results in all three units simultaneously

Practical Applications
This inductance calculator is particularly useful for:
- Circuit Design: Convert between different inductance units when designing filters, oscillators, or power supplies
- Component Selection: Match inductor values when substituting components in existing circuits
- Educational Purposes: Learn about inductance units and their relationships
- Technical Documentation: Convert values for datasheets, reports, or presentations
Understanding Inductance
Inductance is the property of an electrical conductor that opposes changes in current flow. The Henry (H) is the SI unit, named after Joseph Henry who discovered electromagnetic induction independently around the same time as Michael Faraday.
The relationships between units are straightforward:
- 1 Henry (H) = 1,000 millihenry (mH)
- 1 Henry (H) = 1,000,000 microhenry (μH)
- 1 millihenry (mH) = 1,000 microhenry (μH)
Our tool handles all these conversions with precision up to 6 decimal places, ensuring accuracy for even the most sensitive electronic applications.
