Kilohm to Reciprocal siemens Converter

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

Conversion formula

1 kohm = 1,000 1/S

1 1/S = 0.001 kohm

Example: 100 kohm = 100,000 1/S

Kilohm

One kilohm is equal to 1000 ohms.

History: Kilohm values appear throughout everyday electronics circuit design.

Current use: Used for resistors, pull-up and pull-down networks, sensors, and signal conditioning.

Also written as kohm, kilohm, kilohms, kΩ.

Reciprocal siemens

One reciprocal siemens is equal to one ohm.

History: Conductance and resistance are reciprocal electrical quantities.

Current use: Used when converting between resistance and conductance references.

Also written as 1/S, inverse siemens.
