Short background on the units used in this conversion.
The microfarad (µF) equals 10⁻⁶ farad — the common unit for electrolytic and film capacitors in power supplies and audio circuits.
Microfarads label bulk capacitors on PCBs, power filters, and timing circuits where µF values dominate.
The farad (F) is the SI unit of capacitance — one coulomb per volt (C/V), the charge stored per volt across a capacitor.
Farads quantify capacitor size in theory; practical capacitors use microfarad, nanofarad, and picofarad.
F = µF × 0.000001µF = F × 1,000,000, using the same exact factors as this converter.
