Nanofarads to Microfarads Converter
1 nanofarad = 0.001 microfarads
1 nanofarad equals 0.001 microfarads
How to convert nanofarads to microfarads
Capacitance is charge stored per potential difference: 1 F = 1 C/V. The microfarad, nanofarad and picofarad differ by factors of 1000; these unit changes preserve the component’s stated tolerance.
µF = nF × 0.001One nanofarad is 0.001 microfarads, so a single multiplication converts any value.
0.01 µF = 10 × 0.001Nanofarads to microfarads conversion table

Sources and precision
Table results are rounded to 8 significant digits; formula constants may be rounded to 10. Worked example answers use 6 significant digits. The converter starts at 6 significant digits and lets you change display precision. Calculations use the stored factors without intermediate rounding. Exact unit definitions do not make an input measurement more precise; conventional and measured factors follow the assumptions stated here.
