A digital vernier is mainly used to measure lengths or distances very accurately. These may be internal or external distances. The distance may be read as either metric or imperial.
It depends on what you are trying to measure. If you are measuring the length of a car, for example, any reading obtained using vernier callipers is likely to be totally useless. The key is to select a tool that is appropriate to the task.
A vernier caliper is a precision measuring instrument used to measure dimensions such as length, depth, and internal/external diameters with high accuracy. It features a main scale and a sliding vernier scale, allowing for measurements to be taken with a resolution typically of 0.01 mm or 0.02 mm. The vernier caliper can measure both metric and imperial units, making it versatile for various applications in engineering and manufacturing.

Most metric micrometers have graduations of .01mm (.001"), and some read to .001mm or nearly .0001". Depending on the application, digital and vernier types are available in both. See "LS Starrett Company" or Mitutoyo America Corporation.

The smallest accurate measurement that can be made on a standard metric 25 50 mm micrometer is typically 0.01 mm or 0.001 cm. These micrometers are designed to read to the hundredth of a millimeter or the thousandth of a centimeter, providing relatively precise measurements.
A standard Micrometer using the Metric system has a limitation of measuring to within 0.01 (one hundredth of a millimeter) But micrometers provided with a vernier scale on the sleeve in addition to the regular graduations, permit measurements to within 0.001 millimetre to be made on metric micrometers, or 0.0001 inches on inch-system micrometers.
meter
A millimeter is larger in the metric system than a micrometer. There are 1000 micrometers in 1 millimeter.
In the metric system, a micrometer is equal to 0.000001 of a meter, which is one millionth of a meter. It is often used to measure very small distances with high precision.
The smallest unit shown on a metric ruler is typically millimeters (mm). Each millimeter is divided into smaller increments, such as tenths or hundredths of a millimeter, depending on the precision of the ruler. The metric system is based on powers of 10, making conversions between different units straightforward and consistent.
As far as I know, the smallest metric prefix is "yocto-," which is 10-24.
