Microfarad to nanofarad Conversion
1 microfarad (µF) is equal to 1000 nanofarad (nF).
1 µF = 1000 nF
or
1 nF = 0.001 µF
Formula
To convert a capacitance from microfarad (µF) to nanofarad (nF), multiply the capacitance in microfarad by 1000
c(nF) = c(µF) × 1000
Examples:
Convert 50 microfarad to nanofarad:
c(nF) = 50µF × 1000 = 50000 nF

Frequently asked questions
How do I convert microfarad to nanofarad?
Multiply the value in microfarad by 1000 to get the result in nanofarad. For example, 5 µF × 1000 = 5000 nF.
How many nanofarad are in 1 microfarad?
1 microfarad (µF) is equal to 1000 nanofarad (nF).
How do I convert nanofarad back to microfarad?
Use the inverse operation: divide the value in nanofarad by 1000 to get the result in microfarad.
How accurate is the microfarad to nanofarad conversion?
The converter multiplies by the conversion factor 1000 and rounds the result to 9 decimal places by default. You can increase or reduce the precision with the digits option on this page.
