What is an abhenry (abH)?

Abhenry is a unit of inductance in the cgs electromagnetic system (cgs-emu), historically used to measure inductance linking magnetic flux and current.

Why convert abhenry to femtohenry?

Converting abhenry to femtohenry helps translate old cgs-emu inductance values into SI units suitable for modern microelectronic and high-frequency applications.

Where is femtohenry commonly used?

Femtohenry is used to describe extremely small inductances found in microelectronic components, PCB traces, RF/microwave circuits, and integrated circuit design.
