From unit
Inch (in) — Imperial/US unit defined exactly as 25.4 millimeters
Standard in manufacturing and consumer specs in the US, including displays and lumber. Defined metrically for exact conversions.
- Symbol: in
- System: Imperial/US customary
- Exact relations: 1 in = 25.4 mm = 2.54 cm = 0.0254 m (exact)
- Other relations: 12 in = 1 ft, 36 in = 1 yd
- Typical examples: screen sizes, pipe/nominal lumber sizes, drill bits
To unit
Micrometer (µm) — SI unit equal to one millionth of a meter
Used in precision engineering, microscopy, and semiconductor manufacturing for dimensions far below a millimeter
- Symbol: µm (also called micron)
- System: SI derived unit
- Exact relations: 1 µm = 10⁻⁶ m = 0.001 mm = 10⁻⁴ cm
- Imperial/US equivalents: 1 µm ≈ 0.0000393700787 in
- Typical examples: human hair ~70 µm; bacteria ~1–10 µm; semiconductor features in the sub-µm to tens of µm range
