How to convert kilohm to megohm
Enter your resistance in kilohm and get the equivalent in megohm instantly. Key reference points: a standard LED resistor is 220-330 ohms, the human body has a resistance of about 1000 ohms (dry skin), and an insulation tester reads in megohms.
Kilohms and megohms are both common resistor ranges; kilohms are used for biasing and pull-ups while megohms appear in high-impedance input circuits and voltage measurement dividers.
