I guess I would have to ask if you referring to place value with or without decimals?
Without decimals, the smallest place value is the ones or unit place.
With decimals, the smallest place value would be whatever the largest place value is with a "ths" added to the end of it.
Example:
98.76054321
9 = tens place
8 = ones / units place
7 = tenths
6 = hundredths
0 = thousandths
5 = ten thousandths
4 = hundred thousandths
3 = millionths
2 = ten millionths
1 = hundred millionths
This pattern continues for smaller numbers.
So place values get smaller the same way they get larger.
Hope this makes some sense.

You could always keep going smaller and smaller... billionths... trillionths.... perhaps there's an infinity-th.
