Basic Electronics

The actual capacitance provided by the capacitor may not be the same as the nominal capacitance, as the capacitance changes with the frequency of the applied signal and the ambient temperature. The nominal capacitance of standard capacitors is expressed in Microfarad (10 -6 F), Nanofarad (10 -9 F) and Picofarad (10 -12 F).
