millifarad
Thousandth capacitance unit
A millifarad is one thousandth of a farad, the standard unit of electrical capacitance.
Abbreviated mF.
Capacitors rated in millifarads are relatively large; most common capacitors measure in microfarads or smaller.
The power supply uses a 10 mF capacitor for smoothing.
