Picofarad to Nanofarad Converter

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

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.

Nanofarad

One nanofarad is equal to one billionth of a farad (1e-9 farads).

History: Nanofarads are common in signal and timing circuits.

Current use: Used for ceramic capacitors, filters, oscillators, and electronics design.

Also written as nF.
