Hi Matt

milli (m) = 0.001 = 10^(-3)

micro (u) = 0.000001 = 10^(-6)

nano (n) = 0.000000001 = 10^(-9)

pico (p) = 0.000000000001 = 10^(-12)

Example for converting nF to uF.     5.3nF = 5.3 x 10^(-9)F = 5.3 x 10^(-9)
x 10^(6) x 10^(-6)F = 5.3 x 10^(-9) x 10^(6)uF

                                                             = 5.3 x 10^(-9
+ 6)uF = 5.3 x 10^(-3)uF = 0.0053uF

Example for converting pF to uF.     20.5pF = 20.5 x 10^(-12)F = 20.5 x
10^(-12) x 10^(6) x 10^(-6)F = 20.5 x 10^(-12) x 10^(6)uF

                                                               = 20.5 x
10^(-12 + 6)uF = 20.5 x 10^(-6)uF = 0.0000205uF.
