Most time signatures consist of two numerals, one stacked above the other: The lower numeral indicates the note value that the signature is counting. This number is always a power of 2 (unless the time signature is irrational), usually 2, 4 or 8, but less often 16 is also used, usually in Baroque music. 2 corresponds to the half note (minim), 4 to the quarter note (crotchet), 8 to the eighth ...

The Jiffy is the amount of time light takes to travel one femtometre (about the diameter of a nucleon). The Planck time is the time that light takes to travel one Planck length. The TU (for time unit) is a unit of time defined as 1024 μs for use in engineering. The svedberg is a time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually
4) and the direction 'Free time' written above. The word FREE is written downwards across the stave. This is mostly used when the piece changes to free time after having had a time signature. Instead of a time signature, a large X is written on the stave. Note heads alone are used, without time values (typically black note heads without stems)
The article says that only for compound time signatures, like 6/8, 9/8, and 12/8. Notice that in these cases the upper number is divisible by 3.
