How to Convert Microfarads to Picofarads
Joe is the creator of Inch Calculator and has over 20 years of experience in engineering and construction. He holds several degrees and certifications.
To convert a measurement in microfarads to a measurement in picofarads, multiply the capacitance by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000 picofarads/microfarad.
Since one microfarad is equal to 1,000,000 picofarads, you can use this simple formula to convert:
picofarads = microfarads × 1,000,000
The capacitance in picofarads is equal to the capacitance in microfarads multiplied by 1,000,000.
How Many Picofarads Are in a Microfarad?
There are 1,000,000 picofarads in a microfarad, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 μF = 1,000,000 pF
Microfarads and picofarads 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 Picofarad?
The picofarad is 1/1,000,000,000,000 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 picofarad is a multiple of the farad, which is the SI derived unit for capacitance. In the metric system, "pico" is the prefix for 10-12. Picofarads can be abbreviated as pF; for example, 1 picofarad can be written as 1 pF.
