A picofarad is 10-12 farads. It's 1/1,000,000,000,000 or one trillionth of a farad. A picofarad is often referred to as a "puff" by electronics types. The farad is a measure of capacitance. As an example, a 10 picofarad capacitor is a 10 puff cap or ten trillionths of a farad.

What is meant by Kpf in capacitors?
1 pF= 10-12 F (pF is picofarad) 1 KpF = 10-10 F
What is the symbol of capacitor?
The capacitor symbol looks like: --|(--
What are customary units for measuring capacity?
-- cubic inch -- cubic foot -- cubic yard -- fluid ounce -- cup -- pint -- quart -- gallon -- hogshead -- milliliter -- liter -- cubic centimeter -- cubic meter -- farad
If picofarad capacitor is replaced with microfarad capacitor then what will happend?
The unit of capacitor is farad. 1 farad =10 to the power of 6 microfarad and also = 10 to the power of 12 picofarad Therfore if you are replacing one picofarad capcitor into one microfarad capacitor you are increasing the capcitance to 1000000 times. If it is in an oscillator circuit you are changing the frequency drastically which will be of no use.
What does pico- mean?
It is a prefix in the metric system, generally used in classification of electric capacitors - 'picofarad' etc.
What is meant by Kpf in capacitors?
1 pF= 10-12 F (pF is picofarad) 1 KpF = 10-10 F
How do you convert microfarads to picofarads?
A picofarad is one trillionth (10^-12) of a farad. A microfarad is 10^-6. Multiply your picofarads by 10^-6 to get microfarads.
Full form of pf?
The most common use of pF in electronics is to denote a picofarad, which is 1x10-12 Farads. The Farad is the base unit of measurement for capacitance.
What is the symbol of capacitor?
The capacitor symbol looks like: --|(--
One pico second would be how much of a second?
A picosecond would be one trillionth of a second. Pico is commonly used in units of measurement for electricity, for example a picofarad is one trillionth of a farad.
One farad is equal to?
Farad is a unit of capacitance - to measure the capacity of devices called capacitors. Farad means coloumb/voltage, in other words, if the capacitor has a capacity of 1 farad, it will store a charge of 1 coloumb for every volt. This is a huge unit; real capacitors are usually specified in microfarad, nanofarad or picofarad.

According to SOWPODS (the combination of Scrabble dictionaries used around the world) there are 1 words with the pattern -IC----AD. That is, nine letter words with 2nd letter I and 3rd letter C and 8th letter A and 9th letter D. In alphabetical order, they are: picofarad
What is micro farads?
The microfarad is a unit of capacitance, equivalent to 0.000001 (10 to the -6th power) farad. The microfarad is a moderate unit of capacitance. In utility alternating-current (AC) and audio-frequency (AF) circuits, capacitors with values on the order of 1 µF or more are common. At radio frequencies (RF), a smaller unit, the picofarad (pF), is often used. This unit is equal to .000000000001 (10^-12) µF.
