dB to Watt Calculator

This calculator is used to convert from dB to Watt as a measure of sound or noise level.

📢 Note: This is an audio sound power level calculator

🛜 If instead you’re looking to convert a dBm (deciBel relative to 1 mW) Radio Frequency Power value to Watt, use this calculator instead.

Sound power levels or L_wdB are determined by the following formula:

L_wdB = 10*Log₁₀ (L_w/ L_R)

The reference power L_R is one trillionth of a Watt or 10^-12 W

Use the tool below to convert from dB to Watt
