How the formula works
Both millifarad and centifarad measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in millifarads by 0.1 to get centifarads. To reverse the conversion, multiply a centifarad value by 10 to get back to millifarads.
Frequently asked questions
What is Millifarad (mF)?
A Millifarad (mF) equals 1/1,000 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for milli-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 millifarads to centifarads?
Multiply the millifarad value by 0.1 to get the equivalent in centifarads. For example, 5 mF × 0.1 = 0.5 cF.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 0.1 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert centifarads back to millifarads?
Yes. Divide the centifarad value by 0.1, or multiply it by 10, to get millifarads.
