picofarads
Small capacitance units
Picofarads are units of electrical capacitance equal to one trillionth of a farad.
Since the farad itself is impractically large for most applications, capacitors in everyday electronics—circuit boards, radios, sensors—are typically measured in picofarads or microfarads: a 100-picofarad capacitor.
