| 1. | It provides capacitive coupling of a few picofarads between two nodes.
|
| 2. | Capacitance ranges from picofarad to more than hundreds of farad.
|
| 3. | Its subdivisions were invariably used, namely the microfarad, nanofarad and picofarad.
|
| 4. | Picofarads of capacitance to ground limited bandwidth.
|
| 5. | A typical value of this capacitance is tens of picofarads that practically limits the output frequency to approximately 100 kHz.
|
| 6. | Resistance is referred to in ohms ( ? ), capacitance is referred to in picofarad ( pF or " puff " ).
|
| 7. | The picofarad is sometimes colloquially pronounced as " puff " or " pic ", as in " a ten-puff capacitor ".
|
| 8. | Active probes are commonly seen by the circuit under test as a capacitance of 1 picofarad or less in parallel with 1 megohm resistance.
|
| 9. | A " micro-microfarad " ( ??F, and confusingly often mmf or MMF ), an obsolete unit sometimes found in older texts, is the equivalent of a picofarad.
|
| 10. | The prefix for this number is pico-, and is abbreviated as " p " ( for example, in electronics, one picofarad would be written as 1 pF ).
