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

How to convert microfarads to farads
To convert microfarads to farads, multiply the number of microfarads by 0.000001.
Formula
F = µF × 0.000001
Examples
- 5 µF = 5 × 0.000001 = 0.000005 F
- 25 µF = 25 × 0.000001 = 0.000025 F
- 100 µF = 100 × 0.000001 = 0.0001 F
