is approximately a thousand bytes (actually, 2 to the 10th power, or
decimal 1,024 bytes).
KiloHertz (kHz)
Used to describe the frequency
of a crystal or oscillator in terms of thousands of Hertz
(cycles per second). A frequency specified as "10.0 kHz" would
be understood as being a frequency of 10,000 Hertz (cycles per second).
A frequency specified as "10,000 kHz" would be understood
