Converts between power ratios and decibel scale for audio, RF, and other applications. Logarithmic scale matches human perception.

公式

dBm = 10 × log10(P ÷ 0.001)
P
P value — Variable used in the calculation

ステップバイステップガイド

  1. 1dBm = 10 × log10(P ÷ 0.001)
  2. 2dBW = 10 × log10(P)
  3. 3Reverse: power (watts) = 10^(dBm ÷ 10) ÷ 1000
  4. 4Every 3 dB ≈ 2× power
  5. 5Every 10 dB ≈ 10× power

解いた例

入力
Power 1W
結果
30 dBm

避けるべきよくある間違い

  • Confusing dBm (power) with dBV (voltage) with dBu (relative to 0.775V)
  • Adding dBm values instead of multiplying power

よくある質問

Why use decibels instead of watts?

Logarithmic scale compresses large ranges (1W to 1MW becomes 30 dBm to 60 dBm), easier comparison.

What's typical dBm for audio and RF?

Audio -20 to +4 dBu typical; WiFi transmit +17 to +30 dBm; cellular -30 to +33 dBm.
