Understanding Millifarads
A millifarad (mF) is a unit of electrical capacitance equal to one-thousandth (10⁻³) of a farad. It's commonly used in electronics and electrical engineering to measure the capacity of capacitors and other electronic components.
Common Conversions
- 1 millifarad = 0.001 farads
- 1 millifarad = 1,000 microfarads
- 1 millifarad = 1,000,000 nanofarads
Practical Applications
Millifarads are typically used in high-capacity applications such as power supply filtering, motor start capacitors, and industrial electronic equipment. Most everyday electronic devices use smaller units like microfarads or nanofarads.
