About These Units
Gilbert (Gb)
The gilbert (Gb) is the CGS unit of magnetomotive force (MMF), equal to 10/4π ≈ 0.796 ampere-turns. While technically a unit of MMF rather than current, it's dimensionally related. Named after William Gilbert. One ampere-turn equals 1.257 gilberts.
Microampere (μA)
A microampere (μA) equals 10⁻⁶ amperes or 0.001 milliamperes. Used in low-power electronics: watch batteries draw 1-2 μA, sleep mode microcontrollers 1-100 μA, pacemakers 10-25 μA, biosensors and electrochemical cells. Critical for battery life calculations.
