Quantum leap is an increase in the units, or “quanta” you use to measure something i.e. MHz to GHz - the term doesn’t relate directly to quantum mechanics

- dsr_ 9y agoIn your example you are using the same units - Hertz, one cycle per second - and adding SI prefixes for million X and billion X.
- rusk 9y agoYes, but the "quantum" has increased by order of magnitude. The point is, that the increase in frequency is so large, that using MHz is no longer sensible. There has been a "quantum leap" in frequency.
