µF = fF × 1.000000000e-9
About Femtofarads
The femtofarad (fF) equals 10⁻¹⁵ F, the standard unit for transistor gate capacitances in CMOS technology and MEMS sensors. Transistors in 7 nm process nodes have gate capacitances of 0.5-5 fF; MEMS capacitive pressure sensors use sense-gap capacitances of 1-100 fF; integrated-circuit bond-pad parasitics and via coupling are quantified in femtofarads. 1 fF = 10⁻³ pF = 10⁻¹⁵ F.
About Microfarads
The microfarad (µF) equals 10⁻⁶ F, the practical scale for power supply filtering, motor-run capacitors, and audio crossovers. Aluminium electrolytic capacitors range from 1 µF to 100 000 µF; DC link bus capacitors in inverter drives are 100-1 000 µF; motor-run capacitors are 1-100 µF per phase; audio crossover networks use 1-100 µF film capacitors. 1 µF = 10⁻³ mF = 10⁻⁶ F.
