Use this page to convert picosiemens values into siemens, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

1 pS = 0.000000000001 S

1 S = 1,000,000,000,000 pS

Example: 0.01 pS = 1e-14 S

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.

Siemens measures electrical conductance, the reciprocal of resistance.

History: The siemens is named after Werner von Siemens and replaced the older name mho.

Current use: Used in circuits, conductors, sensors, electrolytes, power systems, and electrical measurements.

Also written as S.
