  2. Microsecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsecond

    A microsecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 11.57 days. 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.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millisecond

    A millisecond (from milli-and second; symbol: ms) is a unit of time in the International System of Units equal to one thousandth (0.001 or 103 or 1 / 1000) of a second [1] [2] or 1000 microseconds. A millisecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 16.67 minutes.

  8. TU (time unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TU_(Time_Unit)

    In some data communication standards, a time unit (TU) is equal to 1024 microseconds. [1] This unit of time was originally introduced in IEEE 802.11-1999 standard [2] and continues to be used in newer issues of the IEEE 802.11 standard. [1] In the 802.11 standards, periods of time are generally described as integral numbers of time units.

  9. 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.
