What does the "50u" refer to?
Is the "u" = "mu" as in "microns?"
"u" is 1/1000 of a micro, like when reffering
to electrical capacity, 1000uF = 1mF
I don't think so. Check any dictionary. In the context used by James
Fraser, a micron, u, is a unit and refers to a millionth of a meter.
In the context used by Elfa Rose, micro, u-, is a prefix indicating
the millionth part any unit measurement. For the "anal-retentive",
micron is a noun...micro is an adjective. Unfortunately, the same
symbol has been adopted for both.
