About Statohms
The statohm (statΩ) is the resistance unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to 1 statvolt per statampere = c² × 10⁻⁵ Ω ≈ 898.755 GΩ (exact, where c = 299 792 458 m/s). In Gaussian CGS Ohm's law takes the form R [statΩ] = V [statV] / I [statA]; the statohm appears in classical electrodynamics and plasma physics texts alongside other Gaussian-CGS units. 1 statΩ ≈ 898.755 GΩ ≈ 0.899 TΩ.
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.
