What is a femtohenry used for?

Femtohenry is used to express extremely small inductance values in microelectronics, such as parasitic inductance in PCB traces and on-chip inductors.

Why convert femtohenry to decihenry?

Converting femtohenry to decihenry helps translate ultra-small inductance measurements into larger units used in practical circuit and filter design.

Are there limitations when converting between these units?

Yes, the conversion results often in very small decimal values due to the scale difference, which may be beyond practical measurement or significance in some contexts.
