Conversion formula
1 aF = 1e-18 F
1 F = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 aF
Example: 0.000001 aF = 1e-24 F
Attofarad
One attofarad is equal to one quintillionth of a farad (1e-18 farads).
History: SI prefixes provide systematic scaling for very large and very small capacitance values.
Current use: Used for complete conversion coverage, scientific notation, and specialized capacitance references.
Also written as aF.
Farad
Farad measures capacitance, equal to one coulomb per volt.
History: The farad is named after Michael Faraday and is the SI derived unit of capacitance.
Current use: Used for capacitors, electronics, power systems, filters, sensors, and energy storage.
Also written as F.
