You can view more details on each measurement unit: pA or amps The SI base unit for electric current is the ampere. 1 ampere is equal to 1000000000000 pA, or 1 amps. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between picoamperes and amperes. Type in your own numbers in the form to convert the units!
You can do the reverse unit conversion from amps to pA, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "pico" represents a factor of 10-12, or in exponential notation, 1E-12.
So 1 picoampere = 10-12 ampere.
In physics, the ampere (symbol: A, often informally abbreviated to amp) is the SI base unit used to measure electrical currents. The present definition, adopted by the 9th CGPM in 1948 is: "one ampere is that constant current which, if maintained in two straight parallel conductors of infinite length, of negligible circular cross-section, and placed one metre apart in vacuum, would produce between these conductors a force equal to 2 × 10-7 newton per metre of length".
