Convert Picoohms to Gigaohms
Convert Picoohms (pΩ) to Gigaohms (GΩ) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
GΩ = pΩ × 1.000000000e-21
About Picoohms
The picoohm (pΩ) equals 10⁻¹² Ω, used for ultra-low resistance measurements in superconductors and precision four-wire metrology. A superconducting wire transitioning through its critical temperature shows residual resistance at the picoohm level; high-precision Josephson-array resistance bridges operated at national metrology institutes resolve differences below 1 pΩ. 1 pΩ = 10⁻³ nΩ = 10⁻¹² Ω.
About Gigaohms
The gigaohm (GΩ) equals 10⁹ Ω, the regime of PTFE and glass insulation, MOSFET gate oxide, and specialised electrometer inputs. High-quality PCB insulation resistance between adjacent tracks exceeds 10 GΩ; the reverse-leakage resistance of a silicon junction at room temperature is in the gigaohm range; the guarded input of a Keithley 6517B electrometer is rated at 200 TΩ, but JFET-input op-amps commonly show input resistance of a few GΩ. 1 GΩ = 10⁹ Ω = 10³ MΩ.
