Microsecond (µs)

Units
A microsecond is one millionth of a second. PEMF pulse timing is measured in microseconds because the events that shape each pulse, how fast the field rises and how fast it falls, happen in a tiny fraction of a second. Rise time, fall time, and pulse width are all reported in microseconds, and slew rate is reported in Gauss per microsecond, so a shorter time in microseconds means a faster, sharper change in the field. One microsecond (µs) equals 0.000001 second, and one thousand microseconds make one millisecond.
