Convert Picohenries to Kilohenries
Convert Picohenries (pH) to Kilohenries (kH) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
kH = pH × 1.000000000e-15
About Picohenries
The picohenry (pH) equals 10⁻¹² H, the practical unit for short PCB traces, decoupling capacitor equivalent series inductance (ESL), and bond-wire inductance in RF packages. A 1 mm PCB trace (50 Ω microstrip) has about 1 nH/mm; SMD bypass capacitors have ESL of 0.1-2 nH; gold bondwires are 1-5 pH/mm. IC package lead inductances are typically 1-10 nH = 1 000-10 000 pH. 1 pH = 10⁻³ nH = 10⁻¹² H.
About Kilohenries
The kilohenry (kH) equals 10³ H, encountered in the inductance of very-low-frequency (VLF) antenna loading coils and large power-system shunt reactors. Submarine communication transmitters at 10-30 kHz use loading coils of 100-2 000 H = 0.1-2 kH; high-voltage shunt reactors in 400 kV grid substations have inductances of around 100-1 000 H = 0.1-1 kH. 1 kH = 10³ H = 10⁻³ MH.
