Default Headset Noise

Mike,

Thanks for publishing the alternator simulations. I found them very
interesting.

You said, "... with six intact diodes, the fundamental frequency of the
ripple is six times the rotation rate."

I read the fundamental ripple frequency as 3 kHz. If that's six times the
rotation rate, then the rotation rate must be 500 Hz. That's 30,000 rpm.
That doesn't seem reasonable. What am I missing?

Regards,

Jon
