About these units
Square Mil (mil²)
A square mil equals the area of a square one mil (0.001 inch) on each side, producing an area of one-millionth of a square inch. This tiny unit appears in microfabrication, thin-film manufacturing, and fine electronic component design. Engineers rely on mils and mil² for PCB trace design, wire bonding pads, and micro-mechanical parts. Despite modern efforts to shift toward metric units, mils remain deeply embedded in American electronics manufacturing due to legacy tooling and engineering standards.
Circular Inch (circ in)
A circular inch represents the area of a circle with a diameter of exactly one inch. This yields an area of approximately 0.7854 square inches. It is sometimes used in engineering, especially in the sizing of pipes, hydraulic fittings, and certain mechanical components where circular cross-sections dominate. While not as widespread as the square inch, the circular inch offers a more direct representation of the actual shape of round components, reducing the need for manual geometric conversion.
