Understanding Electrical Resistance Conversion
Conversion Formula
To convert from kiloohms (kΩ) to gigaohms (GΩ), use this formula:
GΩ = kΩ ÷ 1,000,000
What is a Kiloohm (kΩ)?
A kiloohm is a unit of electrical resistance equal to 1,000 ohms (Ω). It's commonly used in electronics to measure medium-range resistance values in circuits.
What is a Gigaohm (GΩ)?
A gigaohm represents 1 billion ohms (109 Ω) and is used to measure very high electrical resistance. It's often used in measuring insulation resistance and high-impedance circuits.
Common Applications
- Electronics design and testing
- Insulation resistance measurements
- High-precision resistor specifications
- Quality control in electronic manufacturing
