Picosiemens to Megasiemens Converter
Use this page to convert picosiemens values into megasiemens, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.
Conversion formula
1 pS = 1e-18 MS
1 MS = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 pS
Example: 0.01 pS = 1e-20 MS
Picosiemens
One picosiemens is equal to one trillionth of a siemens (1e-12 siemens).
History: Picosiemens conductances characterize individual ion channels and ultra-pure water.
Current use: Used for electrophysiology, single-channel recording, and trace-level measurements.
Also written as pS.
Megasiemens
One megasiemens is equal to one million siemens (1000000 siemens).
History: Megasiemens scaling is useful for very high conductance values.
Current use: Used for large conductors, high-conductance systems, and scientific notation.
Also written as MS.
