How to convert farads to nanofarads
nF = F × 1,000,000,000Because one nanofarad equals 1×10⁻⁹ farads, you can also divide: nF = F ÷ 1×10⁻⁹.
A farad is larger than a nanofarad: one farad contains 1,000,000,000 nanofarads.

About the units
Farad (F)
One coulomb per volt.
Nanofarad (nF)
The nanofarad (nF) is a unit of capacitance in the International System of Units (SI). One nanofarad equals 1×10⁻⁹ farads (F).
Frequently asked questions
How many nanofarads are in one farad?
There are 1,000,000,000 nanofarads in one farad, and this value is exact by definition.
How do I convert farads to nanofarads?
Multiply the number of farads by 1,000,000,000. For example, 10 F × 1,000,000,000 = 10,000,000,000 nF.
How many farads are in one nanofarad?
One nanofarad equals 1×10⁻⁹ farads. That is the reverse factor, 1 ÷ 1,000,000,000.
What is 10 farads in nanofarads?
10 F = 10,000,000,000 nF.
Is this F to nF converter accurate?
Yes. Both units are defined exactly in terms of SI units, so the conversion factor is exact; results are shown to 12 significant figures by default and you can change precision in the converter. Calculations run in your browser using the same tested engine that generated this page.
