pF*Ω

F (farad) and Ω (ohm) are SI units and should not be changed. Nor should p (pico-).

Reply to Asker: many people would omit the '*' (Google it without to see), but you can leave it in if you prefer.
Note from asker:
Thanks! So the * can stay in the localised version?
Peer comment(s):

agree Tony M : Yes, do not translate! Note that the 'x' in CxR ought in fact to be a × — it would be less confusing to correct this if you are able. / Better not to omit it here, to avoid confusion with CR / RC as time constant

Thanks, Tony. The convention in units, physics and math is to use '·' as the multiplication sign or just omit it when omission cannot be misinterpreted/Sorry, thought you referred to the '*' in 'pF*Ω'. This one can be omitted. Yes, C×R (or C·R).
