Conversion Formula

Factor

1 cW=0.001 daW1\ \mathrm{cW} = 0.001\ \mathrm{daW}

Formula

daW=cW÷1,000\mathrm{daW} = \mathrm{cW} \div 1,000

Unit Description

Centiwatt (cW)

Definition

A centiwatt (cW) is a unit of power equal to one hundredth of a watt (0.01 W). It represents extremely small power levels found in ultra-low-power electronics, precision sensors, and specialized instruments.

History

The centiwatt developed with the need for precise power measurements in advanced electronics and scientific instruments. It became important for describing power consumption in ultra-low-power devices and precision measurement systems.

Current Use

Centiwatts are used in ultra-low-power electronics, precision sensors, and specialized scientific instruments. They're essential for describing power consumption in advanced sensors, precision circuits, and ultra-low-power electronic systems.

Decawatt (daW)

Definition

A decawatt (daW) is a unit of power equal to ten watts (10¹ W). It represents small power levels typically found in low-power appliances, electronic devices, and small electrical systems.

History

The decawatt developed as part of the metric system's decimal structure, providing a convenient intermediate unit between watts and smaller power measurements. It became useful for describing power consumption of small electronic devices and low-power systems.

Current Use

Decawatts are used for low-power appliance ratings, electronic device specifications, and small electrical systems. They're found in specifications for small electronic devices, LED lighting, and low-power electrical equipment.

Conversion Examples

Convert 1 Centiwatt to Decawatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 cW = 0.001 daW
  2. Conversion Formula: daW = cW ÷ 1,000
  3. Calculation: 1 cW ÷ 1,000 = 0.001 daW

Convert 10 Centiwatt to Decawatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 cW = 0.001 daW
  2. Conversion Formula: daW = cW ÷ 1,000
  3. Calculation: 10 cW ÷ 1,000 = 0.01 daW

Convert 100 Centiwatt to Decawatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 cW = 0.001 daW
  2. Conversion Formula: daW = cW ÷ 1,000
  3. Calculation: 100 cW ÷ 1,000 = 0.1 daW

Convert 1,000 Centiwatt to Decawatt

  1. Conversion Factor: 1 cW = 0.001 daW
  2. Conversion Formula: daW = cW ÷ 1,000
  3. Calculation: 1,000 cW ÷ 1,000 = 1 daW
