How the formula works
Both attofarad and microfarad measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in attofarads by 1.000000e-12 to get microfarads. To reverse the conversion, multiply a microfarad value by 1.000000e+12 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 Microfarad (uF)?
A Microfarad (uF) equals 1e-06 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for micro-scale electrical work.
How do I convert attofarads to microfarads?
Multiply the attofarad value by 1.000000e-12 to get the equivalent in microfarads. For example, 5 aF × 1.000000e-12 = 5.000000e-12 uF.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e-12 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert microfarads back to attofarads?
Yes. Divide the microfarad value by 1.000000e-12, or multiply it by 1.000000e+12, to get attofarads.
