I was learning about audio amplifiers and came across the STA516B IC. To my surprise, the example circuits feature some values for capacitors and inductors which seem a bit high for me. So I wanted to ask if I was missing something or if these components are somehow special and are really meant to have such high values. Thank you for your answers

Get a look at the power rating. Yeah, I can believe you need capacitors in the farad range and inductors in henries to handle that amount of power.

2200 F capacitor rated for 63 V. Woaw, what a monstrosity. I mean, this is a real monster.

On second look, those 1F capacitors are marked with a ceramic dielectric (x7r.) I don't think they make ceramics that big, so maybe the u is missing from uF for those parts.

Maybe the ' µ ' didn't print because it's a special char? edit: Yes - see answer ;-)

Almost certainly the character "$mu$" is failing to be displayed on the PDF document that you used. Try digging a bit deeper on the ST website to see if there are any other references that do use the $mu$ character.
For instance here's a schematic that does show the rogue character: -

Omega has fallen out too. Someone at ST should have his/her computer's Windows OS updated and language packs and fonts installed.
