statF = pF × 0.8987551787
About Picofarads
The picofarad (pF) equals 10⁻¹² F, the everyday unit for small-signal capacitors in RF and high-frequency circuits. Ceramic chip capacitors range from 0.5 to 100 pF; crystal oscillator load capacitance is typically 12-22 pF; PCB trace-to-trace coupling is 0.1-10 pF/cm; the human body presents roughly 100 pF at radio frequencies. 1 pF = 10⁻³ nF = 10⁻¹² F.
About Statfarads
The statfarad (statF) is the capacitance unit of the CGS-Gaussian system, equal to exactly 10⁵/c² F where c = 299 792 458 m/s, giving ≈ 1.1127 × 10⁻¹² F. A sphere of 1 cm radius in vacuum has capacitance exactly 1 statF in Gaussian units; Gaussian-system electrostatics texts and plasma-physics codes express capacitances in statfarads. 1 statF = 10⁵/c² F ≈ 1.113 pF.
