Unit Description

Microwatt (µW)

Definition

A microwatt (µW) is a unit of power equal to one millionth of a watt (10⁻⁶ W). It represents extremely small amounts of power found in ultra-low-power electronics, biological systems, and precision scientific instruments.

History

The microwatt became necessary with the advancement of microelectronics and the development of ultra-low-power devices. It was particularly important for describing power consumption in integrated circuits, sensors, and biological measurement systems.

Current Use

Microwatts are used in microelectronics, biological research, precision instruments, and ultra-low-power applications. They're essential for describing power consumption in microprocessors, biological sensors, and advanced scientific equipment.

Deciwatt (dW)

Definition

A deciwatt (dW) is a unit of power equal to one tenth of a watt (0.1 W). It represents very small power levels typically found in low-power electronic devices, sensors, and precision instruments.

History

The deciwatt developed as part of the metric system's decimal structure, providing a convenient unit for small power measurements. It became useful for describing power consumption of low-power electronic devices and precision instruments.

Current Use

Deciwatts are used for low-power electronic devices, sensor specifications, and precision instruments. They're found in specifications for small sensors, low-power circuits, and electronic devices requiring minimal power consumption.
