Converting from Kilofarad (kF) to Nanofarad (nF) | Electric capacitance

What is Kilofarad (kF)

Kilofarad (kF) is a unit of electric capacitance, with 'kilo' indicating a factor of 1000. One kilofarad is equal to 1000 farads. Usually, kilofarads are used to measure large capacitance values in electronic circuits.

What is Nanofarad (nF)

Nanofarad (nF) is also a unit of electric capacitance, where 'nano' signifies a factor of 0.000000001. It is commonly employed to express smaller capacitance values compared to farads. One nanofarad is equivalent to one billionth of a farad.

Conversion Formulas

To convert from Kilofarads (kF) to Nanofarads (nF), you can use the following formulas:

1. To convert from kilofarads to nanofarads:

Nanofarads (nF)=Kilofarads (kF)×1012

2. To convert from nanofarads to kilofarads:

Kilofarads (kF)=Nanofarads (nF)×10−12

Examples

Here are some examples of conversions between Kilofarads and Nanofarads:

• 3 kF = 3000000000000 nF
• 3 nF = 0.000000000003 kF
