Convert Microfarads to Megafarads
Convert Microfarads (µF) to Megafarads (MF) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
MF = µF × 1.000000000e-12
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.
About Megafarads
The megafarad (MF) equals 10⁶ F, a scale not reached by any discrete capacitor available today. Theoretical projections of utility-scale ultracapacitor arrays for grid energy storage discuss megafarad totals; the Earth-ionosphere spherical capacitor is estimated at about 0.9 F, so MF is well beyond any natural or engineered capacitor at present. 1 MF = 10³ kF = 10⁶ F.
