How the formula works
Both picofarad and microfarad measure the same physical quantity, so converting between them is a single multiplication. Multiply a value in picofarads by 0.000001 to get microfarads. To reverse the conversion, multiply a microfarad value by 1.000000e+06 to get back to picofarads.
Frequently asked questions
What is Picofarad (pF)?
A Picofarad (pF) equals 1e-12 farad(s), a scaled unit of capacitance used for pico-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 picofarads to microfarads?
Multiply the picofarad value by 0.000001 to get the equivalent in microfarads. For example, 5 pF × 0.000001 = 0.000005 uF.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. Both units use fixed, defined scale factors, so the factor 0.000001 is an exact, non-rounded value.
Can I convert microfarads back to picofarads?
Yes. Divide the microfarad value by 0.000001, or multiply it by 1.000000e+06, to get picofarads.
