  5. Microsecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsecond

    A microsecond is equal to 1000 nanoseconds or 1 ⁄ 1,000 of a millisecond. Because the next SI prefix is 1000 times larger, measurements of 10 −5 and 10 −4 seconds are typically expressed as tens or hundreds of microseconds.

  6. Transmission time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_time

    Maximum packet transmission time = 1526×8 bit / (100 × 10 6 bit/s) ≈ 122 μs. ... In wide-area networks, the delivery time is in the order of milliseconds.

  7. Millisecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millisecond

    5 milliseconds to 80 milliseconds – a hummingbird's wing flap; 8 milliseconds – 1/125 of a second, a standard camera shutter speed (125); fastest shifting time of a car's mechanical transmission; 10 milliseconds (10 ms) – a jiffy, cycle time for frequency 100 Hz; 10.378 milliseconds – rotation period of pulsar B1639+36A

  8. 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.

  9. Atomic clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_clock

    Atomic clocks record UTC(k) to no more than 100 nanoseconds. In some countries, UTC(k) is the legal time that is distributed by radio, television, telephone, Internet, fiber-optic cables, time signal transmitters, and speaking clocks. In addition, GNSS provides time information accurate to a few tens of nanoseconds or better.
