Ohm (Ω)
Definition: The ohm (symbol: Ω) is the SI derived unit of electrical resistance, defined as the resistance between two points when a constant potential difference of 1 volt produces a current of 1 ampere.
History: Named after Georg Simon Ohm, who formulated Ohm's Law. Originally defined in 1861 by the British Association for the Advancement of Science, it became part of the SI system in 1960.
Current use: Fundamental to all electronic circuits. Used to specify resistor values, cable impedance, and insulation resistance in everything from microchips to power grids.
Kiloohm (kΩ)
Definition: A kiloohm (symbol: kΩ) equals one thousand ohms (10³ Ω). A common unit for resistor values in electronic circuits.
History: Derived from the ohm with metric prefix 'kilo-'. Gained prominence with the standardization of electronic components in the mid-20th century.
Current use: Typical range for pull-up/down resistors, sensor circuits, and audio equipment. Common in PCB design and consumer electronics.
