  2. Picosecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picosecond

    A picosecond (abbreviated as ps) is a unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 10 −12 or 11 000 000 000 000 (one trillionth) of a second. That is one trillionth, or one millionth of one millionth of a second, or 0.000 000 000 001 seconds. A picosecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 31,688.76 years.

  5. Unit interval (data transmission) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_interval_(data...

    The unit interval is the minimum time interval between condition changes of a data transmission signal, also known as the pulse time or symbol duration time.A unit interval (UI) is the time taken in a data stream by each subsequent pulse (or symbol).

  6. Femtosecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femtosecond

    A femtosecond is a unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) equal to 10 −15 or 11 000 000 000 000 000 of a second; that is, one quadrillionth, or one millionth of one billionth, of a second. [1] A femtosecond is to a second, as a second is to approximately 31.69 million years.

  7. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    The centimetre (SI symbol: cm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −2 metres (⁠ 1 / 100 ⁠ m = 0.01 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 10 −2 m and 10 −1 m (1 cm and 1 dm).

  8. Pulse generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_generator

    A new class of microwave pulse generation architecture, the RACE (Rapid Automatic Cascode Exchange) pulse generation circuit [1] [2] is implemented using low-cost monolithic IC technology and can produce pulses as short as 1 picosecond and repetition rates exceeding 30 billion pulses per second. These pulsers are typically used in military ...
