To help compare different orders of magnitude this page lists areas between 10-6 m² and 10-5 m² (1 to 10 mm²). See also areas of other orders of magnitude.
- Areas smaller than 10-6 m²
- 1 mm² is equal to:
- 1 E-6 m²
- 2 mm² -- Area of the head of a pin
- 8 mm² -- Surface area of the ball in a ballpoint pen
- Areas larger than 10-5 m²
