How the formula works
Both attofarad and centifarad measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in attofarads by 1.000000e-16 to get centifarads. To reverse the conversion, multiply a centifarad value by 1.000000e+16 to get back to attofarads.
Frequently asked questions
What is Attofarad (aF)?
An Attofarad (aF) equals 1e-18 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for atto-scale electrical work.
What is Centifarad (cF)?
A Centifarad (cF) equals 1/100 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for centi-scale electrical work.
How do I convert attofarads to centifarads?
Multiply the attofarad value by 1.000000e-16 to get the equivalent in centifarads. For example, 5 aF × 1.000000e-16 = 5.000000e-16 cF.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e-16 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert centifarads back to attofarads?
Yes. Divide the centifarad value by 1.000000e-16, or multiply it by 1.000000e+16, to get attofarads.
