How the formula works
Both femtoampere and ampere measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in femtoamperes by 1.000000e-15 to get amperes. To reverse the conversion, multiply a ampere value by 1.000000e+15 to get back to femtoamperes.
Frequently asked questions
What is Femtoampere (fA)?
A Femtoampere (fA) equals 1e-15 ampere(s), a scaled unit of electric current used for femto-scale electrical work.
What is Ampere (A)?
The ampere (A) is the SI unit of electric current, measuring the rate of flow of electric charge.
How do I convert femtoamperes to amperes?
Multiply the femtoampere value by 1.000000e-15 to get the equivalent in amperes. For example, 5 fA × 1.000000e-15 = 5.000000e-15 A.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e-15 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert amperes back to femtoamperes?
Yes. Divide the ampere value by 1.000000e-15, or multiply it by 1.000000e+15, to get femtoamperes.
