1 F = 1000000 µFone farad in microfarads
1 µF = 0.000001 Fone microfarad in farads
Farad (F): SI unit of capacitance: one coulomb per volt. Supercapacitors reach several farads.
Microfarad (µF): One millionth of a farad. Electrolytic and motor-run capacitors are rated in µF.

How to convert farads to microfarads
To convert farads to microfarads, multiply the number of farads by 1000000.
Formula
µF = F × 1000000
Examples
- 5 F = 5 × 1000000 = 5000000 µF
- 25 F = 25 × 1000000 = 25000000 µF
- 100 F = 100 × 1000000 = 100000000 µF

Frequently asked questions
- How many microfarads are in one farad?
- One farad is exactly 1000000 microfarads.
- How do I convert microfarads to farads?
- To convert microfarads to farads, multiply the number of microfarads by 0.000001. The formula is F = µF × 0.000001.
- Is this conversion exact?
- Yes. Both units have exact definitions and the factor 1000000 is exact. Displayed results are only rounded when they have many decimal places.
- Which is larger, a farad or a microfarad?
- A farad is 1000000 times larger than a microfarad. In other words, a microfarad is exactly 1/1000000 of a farad.
