How it works
- Enter the capacitance value printed on a component or schematic.
- Select its current unit.
- Review the equivalent values in every common capacitance unit.
Each step between milli-, micro-, nano-, and pico- changes by a factor of 1,000. One µF is 1,000 nF and 1,000,000 pF.
FAQ
What is a farad?
The farad is the SI unit of capacitance. Most practical capacitors are labeled in microfarads, nanofarads, or picofarads.
How many nanofarads are in one microfarad?
One microfarad equals 1,000 nanofarads.
Are these values rounded?
The tool displays significant digits for readability; preserve the original component tolerance when selecting a capacitor.
