  3. Microsecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsecond

    2.68 microseconds – the amount of time subtracted from the Earth's day as a result of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake. [2] 3.33564095 microseconds – the time taken by light to travel one kilometre in a vacuum. 5.4 microseconds – the time taken by light to travel one mile in a vacuum (or radio waves point-to-point in a near vacuum).

  4. Bit time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_time

    The bit time for a 10 Mbit/s NIC is 100 nanoseconds. That is, a 10 Mbit/s NIC can eject 1 bit every 0.1 microsecond (100 nanoseconds = 0.1 microseconds). Bit time is distinctively different from slot time, which is the time taken for a pulse to travel through the longest permitted length of network medium.

  5. Nanosecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanosecond

    A nanosecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 31.69 years. A nanosecond is equal to 1000 picoseconds or ⁠ 1 / 1000 ⁠ microsecond. Time units ranging between 10 −8 and 10 −7 seconds are typically expressed as tens or hundreds of nanoseconds. Time units of this granularity are commonly found in telecommunications ...

  7. Slew rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slew_rate

    In electronics and electromagnetics, slew rate is defined as the change of voltage or current, or any other electrical or electromagnetic quantity, per unit of time. Expressed in SI units , the unit of measurement is given as the change per second, but in the context of electronic circuits a slew rate is usually expressed in terms of ...

  8. Charge conservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge_conservation

    Mathematically, we can state the law of charge conservation as a continuity equation: = ˙ ˙ (). where / is the electric charge accumulation rate in a specific volume at time t, ˙ is the amount of charge flowing into the volume and ˙ is the amount of charge flowing out of the volume; both amounts are regarded as generic functions of time.

  9. Time-to-digital converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-to-digital_converter

    The time-to-digital converter measures the time between a start event and a stop event. There is also a digital-to-time converter or delay generator. The delay generator converts a number to a time delay. When the delay generator gets a start pulse at its input, then it outputs a stop pulse after the specified delay.
