How to Convert Picofarads to Farads
To convert picofarads to farads, divide the value by 1e+12.
The Formula
Farads = Picofarads ÷ 1e+12
Key Fact
1 farad = 1e+12 picofarads
Tip: To convert farads back to picofarads, multiply by 1e+12.

1 pF = 1e-12 F
Full precision:1e-12 F
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 picofarads to farads, we divide by 1e+12 because one farad equals exactly 1e+12 picofarads.
1 farad = 1e+12 picofarads
Since there are 1e+12 picofarads in every farad, we divide our value by this factor:
1 ÷ 1e+12 = 1e-12 farads
So 1 picofarads = 1e-12 farads.
Quick check: 1e-12 × 1e+12 = 1 picofarads
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 pF = 1e-12 F
1 ÷ 1e+12 = 1e-12
1 ÷ 1e+12 = 1e-12
Example 2: 5 pF = 5e-12 F
5 ÷ 1e+12 = 5e-12
5 ÷ 1e+12 = 5e-12
Example 3: 10 pF = 1e-11 F
10 ÷ 1e+12 = 1e-11
10 ÷ 1e+12 = 1e-11
