Microfarad to Picofarad Converter

Use this page to convert microfarad values into picofarad, with background details, formulas, a worked example, and a quick conversion table.

Microfarad

One microfarad is equal to one millionth of a farad (1e-6 farads).

History: Microfarads became standard for many electronic capacitors.

Current use: Used for electrolytic capacitors, filters, power supplies, and circuits.

Also written as uF.

Picofarad

One picofarad is equal to one trillionth of a farad (1e-12 farads).

History: Picofarads are common for RF, parasitic, and small-signal capacitance.

Current use: Used in RF circuits, sensors, cables, parasitic capacitance, and precision electronics.

Also written as pF.
