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.
Kilofarad
One kilofarad is equal to 1000 farads.
History: Large farad values became more visible with supercapacitors and energy storage.
Current use: Used for large capacitors, supercapacitors, and energy storage references.
Also written as kF.
