Transconductance Transconductance Transconductance (for transfer conductance), also infrequently called mutual conductance, is the electrical characteristic relating the current through the output of a device to the voltage across the input of a device. Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance. Transadmittance (or transfer admittance) is the AC equivalent of transconductance. Transconductance is very often denoted as a conductance, "g", with a subscript, m, for "mutual". It is defined as follows: For small signal alternating current, the definition is simpler: The SI unit, the siemens, with the symbol, S; 1 siemens = 1 ampere per volt replaced the old unit of conductance, having
Digit (unit) in Britain for centuries. Heath, writing in 1760, explains that 12 digits are equal to the diameter in eclipse of the sun, but that 23 may be needed for the Earth's shadow as it eclipses the moon, those over 12 representing the extent to which the Earth's shadow is larger than the Moon. The unit is apparently not in current use, but is found in recent dictionaries. A 'finger' of an alcoholic beverage is colloquially referred to as a 'digit'. Digit (unit) The digit or finger is an ancient and obsolete non-SI unit of measurement of length. It was originally
