How Do the Calculations Work
In the 3 digit capacitor first two digits represent the capacitance value and the third is its multiplier value. the equation to calculate the capacitance is given below.
Capacitance=(First Two Digits)×(10Third Digit)
For example calculation: a capacitor is labeled with the number of “473” which indicates,
- The first two digits are “47” as its capacitance.
- The third digit is “3” which is its multiplier value of 103.
Capacitance = 47*103 which means 47*(10*10*10) the value will be 47,000 in pF and also called 47nF or 0.047 µF.
