How the formula works
Both microfarad and picofarad measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in microfarads by 1.000000e+06 to get picofarads. To reverse the conversion, multiply a picofarad value by 0.000001 to get back to microfarads.
Frequently asked questions
What is Microfarad (uF)?
A Microfarad (uF) equals 1e-06 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for micro-scale electrical work.
What is Picofarad (pF)?
A Picofarad (pF) equals 1e-12 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for pico-scale electrical work.
How do I convert microfarads to picofarads?
Multiply the microfarad value by 1.000000e+06 to get the equivalent in picofarads. For example, 5 uF × 1.000000e+06 = 5.000000e+06 pF.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 1.000000e+06 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert picofarads back to microfarads?
Yes. Divide the picofarad value by 1.000000e+06, or multiply it by 0.000001, to get microfarads.
