Amps to dBm Converter
Use this tool to convert current (in amps or milliamps) to dBm and watts based on impedance.
Conversion Steps:
1. Watts: P[W] = I² × R
2. Milliwatts: P[mW] = P[W] × 1000
3. dBm: 10 × log₁₀(P[mW])
Common Reference Points:
- 141.4 mA @ 50Ω = 30 dBm (1W)
- 44.7 mA @ 50Ω = 20 dBm (100mW)
- 14.14 mA @ 50Ω = 10 dBm (10mW)
This tool helps with:
Performing RF power calculations when measuring current through known impedances.
Converting current measurements to RF power values in testing setups.
Verifying power levels from current measurements in 50Ω systems.
