Can someone explain to me how..why.. they use joules as a measurement when we're talking about a signal, right?
I know the relation between watts and joules, i just don't understand how we could even measure something that has no weight (current travelling from 'A' to 'B') in joules.
If that makes sense? Am not exactly versed in physics, so this may well sound dumb to you

Watts is joules used per unit time, the conversion to watts is probably an uglier number than they are willing to admit to atm and sticking with just joules since it will look nicer at a glance. Without a time given the figure is kind of meaningless if I were to guess that number is energy used per clock cycle.
