Convert Microseconds to Milliseconds

Microseconds → Milliseconds
µs × 0.001 = ms ms × 1000 = µs

To convert microseconds (µs) to milliseconds (ms), multiply the microseconds value by 0.001. 1 µs = 0.001 ms, and 1 ms = 1000 µs. The conversion is a linear scaling with no offset, so the same factor applies to any value.

Going the other way? Convert ms to µs.
