About These Units
Microcoulomb (μC)
A microcoulomb (μC) equals 10⁻⁶ coulombs or 1,000 nanocoulombs. Standard for capacitor charge specifications. A 10 μF capacitor at 5V stores 50 μC. Used in piezoelectric sensors, touchscreens, and electrostatic discharge measurements.
ESU of Charge (esu)
The ESU (electrostatic unit) of charge is identical to the statcoulomb and franklin, equal to approximately 3.336×10⁻¹⁰ coulombs. Part of the Gaussian CGS system used in some theoretical physics contexts. One coulomb ≈ 2.998×10⁹ esu.
