How to Convert Microfarads to Millifarads
To convert a measurement in microfarads to a measurement in millifarads, divide the capacitance by the following conversion ratio: 1,000 microfarads/millifarad.
Since one millifarad is equal to 1,000 microfarads, you can use this simple formula to convert:
millifarads = microfarads ÷ 1,000
The capacitance in millifarads is equal to the capacitance in microfarads divided by 1,000.
For example, here's how to convert 5,000 microfarads to millifarads using the formula above.
millifarads = (5,000 μF ÷ 1,000) = 5 mF
Microfarads and millifarads are both units used to measure capacitance. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
What Is a Microfarad?
The microfarad is 1/1,000,000 of a farad, which is the capacitance of a capacitor with a potential difference of one volt when it is charged by one coulomb of electricity.
The microfarad is a multiple of the farad, which is the SI derived unit for capacitance. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for millionths, or 10-6. Microfarads can be abbreviated as μF; for example, 1 microfarad can be written as 1 μF.

What Is a Millifarad?
The millifarad is a multiple of the farad, which is the SI derived unit for capacitance. In the metric system, "milli" is the prefix for thousandths, or 10-3. Millifarads can be abbreviated as mF; for example, 1 millifarad can be written as 1 mF.
