But have you started referring to them as "puffs"? This is the normal UK
colloquialism for picofarads, but I believe it raises the American eyebrow!



Yep, I first heard the term "puffs" here in the U.S. back in the 60's.
Still used a lot by techs and engineers in the field.

I haven't heard micro-micro farads in decades.
