About these units

The microfarad (µF) is a metric unit of capacitance, equal to 0.000001 farads.

The nanofarad (nF) is a metric unit of capacitance, equal to 1e-9 farads.

Going the other way, 1 nanofarad = 0.001 microfarads. Real capacitors are almost never rated in farads — they are microfarads, nanofarads and picofarads. Converting between them is a daily task in electronics.
