Capacitor Ratings

I am looking at a schematic of a signal amplifier, and the capacitor rating is something I have not seen. If the schematic calls for a 3p3 cap is that 3.3 pico or 33 pico? Same goes for 5p6? I have google and came up empty handed on this one, can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks


Greg

    Need to make your prop design easier or secure? Get a PropMod has crystal, eeprom, and programing header in a 40 pin dip 0.7" pitch module with uSD reader, and RTC options.

    For clarity some component values are being specified like that.

    3K3 for a 3.3 K resistor, 4u7 for 4.7uF capacitor. I have even seen voltage and current listed like that.
