  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.

  4. Nanosecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanosecond

    A nanosecond (ns) is a unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one billionth of a second, that is, ⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 000 ⁠ of a second, or 10 −9 seconds. The term combines the SI prefix nano-indicating a 1 billionth submultiple of an SI unit (e.g. nanogram, nanometre, etc.) and second, the primary unit of time in the SI.

  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.

    The term "second" comes from "the second minute division of an hour", as it is 1 ⁄ 60 of a minute, or 1 ⁄ 60 of 1 ⁄ 60 of an hour. While usually sub-second units are represented with SI prefixes on the second (e.g. milliseconds), this system can be extrapolated further, such that a "Third" would mean 1 ⁄ 60 of a second (16.7 ...
