Understanding the Units

What is a Millihenrie?

The henry is the SI derived unit of electrical inductance, equal to one volt-second per ampere (1 H = 1 V·s/A = 1 Wb/A).

Named after Joseph Henry (1797–1878), American scientist who discovered electromagnetic self-inductance.

Common contexts: transformers, inductors.

FAQ

How do I convert millihenries to henries?

Divide the value in millihenries by 1,000. For example, 470 mH ÷ 1,000 = 0.47 H.

What components are rated in millihenries?

Power inductors, chokes, transformer windings, and relay coils are commonly specified in millihenries, ranging from sub-mH to hundreds of mH.

Is a millihenry a large inductance?

In most electronics, millihenry-range inductors are considered moderate. RF circuits use microhenries or nanohenries, while power supply chokes may reach tens of millihenries.

What is the symbol for millihenry?

The symbol is mH. It represents one-thousandth of a henry (0.001 H).

How many henries are in 1 millihenry?

1 mH equals 0.001 H.

How do you convert millihenries to henries?

Multiply the millihenry value by 0.001. Formula: H = mH ÷ 1000.

How many henries are in 5 millihenries?

5 mH = 0.005 H.

How do you convert henries back to millihenries?

Use the inverse formula: mH = H × 1000. For example, 1 H = 1000 mH.

What is the difference between Millihenry and Henry?

The henry is the SI derived unit of electrical inductance, equal to one volt-second per ampere (1 H = 1 V·s/A = 1 Wb/A). The henry is the SI derived unit of electrical inductance, equal to one volt-second per ampere (1 H = 1 V·s/A = 1 Wb/A).
