Hand (unit) Biblical exegesis the hand measurement, as for example in the Vision of the Temple, Authorized Version , is usually taken to be palm or handbreadth, and in modern translations may be rendered as "handbreadth" or "three inches". The hand is a traditional unit in the UK. It was standardised at four inches by a statute of King Henry VIII in 1540, but some confusion between the various types of hand measurement, and particularly between the hand and the handsbreadth, appears to have persisted. Phillips's dictionary of 1706 gives four inches for the length of the handful or hand, and three
Source measure unit cells, or other energy generating devices. SMUs also offer greater speed and precision and typically support wider operating ranges. The built-in sourcing capabilities of an SMU work with the instrument’s measurement capabilities to reduce measurement uncertainty and support low current and more flexible resistance measurements. In voltage measurements system-level leakage can be suppressed more easily than with separate instruments. In current measurements, the SMU’s design reduces voltage burden. For resistance measurements, SMUs provide programmable source values, useful for protecting the device being tested. Notable features of SMUs include the following: Source measure unit The Source measure unit (SMU) is a
