Lux (lx)
The SI unit of illuminance and luminous emittance, measuring luminous flux per unit area.

A maxwell (Mx) is the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) unit of magnetic flux.

Measurement unit, unit of measurement, unit
It is a scalar quantity, defined and adopted by convention, with which any other quantity of the same kind can be compared to express the ratio of the two quantities as a number.

Meter (m)
The metre (or meter), symbol m, is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI).

Mole (mol)
The mole is a unit of measurement used in chemistry to express amounts of a chemical substance. It is one of the base units in the International System of Units, and has the unit symbol mol.

MSa/s or GSa/s

MSa/s(MegaSAmples per Second) A measurement of sampling rate in millions of samples per second

GSa/s(GigaSAmples per Second) A measurement of sampling rate in giga of samples per second

SI derived unit of force. It is equal to the amount of net force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.

The ohm (Ω) is the unit of electrical resistance in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after German physicist Georg Simon Ohm.

SI derived unit of pressure, internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and tensile strength, named after Blaise Pascal.

The standard unit of angular measure, used in many areas of mathematics. An angle's measurement in radians is numerically equal to the length of a corresponding arc of a unit circle, so one radian is just under 57.3 degrees (when the arc length is equal to the radius).
