Yep

n is nano as ten to the power -9

in the same way the u (mu) is micro and ten to the power -6

and p in pico and ten to the power -12

Good morning guys,

Working on an old Grundig/Mercedes car radio and need some help identifying the value of some caps. The capacitors in question are marked 'nF' with a numerical value.

I included a copy of the power supply with two caps circled. How would I 'convert' this to microfarads? Would a 5nF cap convert to a .005uF?  a 4.7nf convert to a .0047uF?


I posted this to a couple of tech oriented car radio forums and got conflicting answers...

Thanks, Kerry
