Microseconds in a sentence

Speeding up phosphorescence to happen in microseconds is necessary to keep up with modern displays, which operate at 120 frames per second, without producing a lingering "ghost" image.

But in retrospect, his breakout is still mysterious, because so much of hitting -- especially during the most crucial microseconds -- is insanity.

Microseconds—mere millionths of a second—may seem short, but that's millions of times longer than usual and long enough for Ni and her team to investigate the phase when bonds break and form, in essence, how one molecule turns into another.

Instead of pushing their jaws together, dracula ants slide one across the other in a motion that takes 23 microseconds.

Robot stood still for several microseconds, modeling possibilities and considering what language would be the most soothing.

A bank of capacitors releases a pulse of high voltage electric current of tens of kilovolts lasting 10 microseconds into the coil, generating a radial magnetic field.

All are unstable, decaying with half-lives ranging from 15.6 million years to a few hundred microseconds.

All the remaining isotopes have half-lives measured in milliseconds, with the exception of the shortest-lived isotope, 261m Sg, with a half-life of only 92 microseconds.

A rule of thumb for the maximum distance between transmitters in an SFN is equal to the distance a signal travels during the guard interval — for instance, a guard interval of 200 microseconds would allow transmitters to be spaced 60 km apart.

Consequently, an op-amp makes a sloppy comparator with propagation delays that can be as long as tens of microseconds.

Curing processes with high power for short periods of times (microseconds) allow curing inks on thermally sensitive substrates.

Data passing through equipment can be delayed by at most 32 microseconds (µs), compared to a frame rate of 125 µs ; many competing protocols buffer the data during such transits for at least one frame or packet before sending it on.

For reference *The average human eye blink takes 350,000 microseconds (just over 1/3 of one second).

However, various show commands display the interface delay in microseconds.

Milliseconds, microseconds and smaller units (but not centiseconds) are well established.

Note that with the exception of the final step, the entire process may run only a few hundred microseconds, in the fastest synapses.

Obviously, in the factory, testing every state is impractical if testing each state takes a microsecond, and there are more states than the number of microseconds since the universe began.

One can estimate the time of travel for a gas molecule from the shock wave to the stagnation point by assuming a free stream velocity of 7.8 km/s and a nose radius of 1 meter, i.e., time of travel is about 18 microseconds.

Special and general relativity predict that the clocks on the GPS satellites would be seen by the Earth's observers to run 38 microseconds faster per day than the clocks on the Earth.

The interface delay is a configurable static parameter expressed in tens of microseconds.
