Understanding Picofarads
A picofarad (pF) is a unit of electrical capacitance, equal to one trillionth (10⁻¹²) of a farad. It's commonly used in electronics for measuring small capacitors and circuit board capacitance.
Common Conversion Factors
- 1 picofarad = 10⁻¹² farads
- 1 picofarad = 10⁻⁶ microfarads
- 1 picofarad = 0.001 nanofarads
Practical Applications
Picofarads are frequently used in:
- High-frequency electronic circuits
- Radio frequency (RF) applications
- Semiconductor devices
- Printed circuit board design
