Torque Converter

Enter a value in any unit; the others update.

Angular Velocity

Rotational speed in mechanical and signal-processing units.
Period (T) @ r = 100 mm tip speed

Strain-Gauge Bridge

Wheatstone bridge output for a given strain and configuration. Assumes identical gauges; small-strain approximation.
Vout mV / V Sensitivity
Vout = (k/4) × GF × ε × Vex   (k = 1, 2, or 4)

ADC Resolution & SNR

LSB size, ideal signal-to-noise ratio (6.02·N + 1.76 dB), and ENOB for a given bit depth.
LSB Ideal SNR Quant. noise ENOB (from SINAD)

Sampling & Nyquist

Max usable input frequency and a sensible anti-alias filter cutoff for a given sample rate.
Nyquist (fs/2) Suggested AA fc Usable bandwidth Sample period
Cutoff chosen so Butterworth attenuation at Nyquist exceeds stopband target.

Cantilever Beam Stress

Tip load on a rectangular cantilever. Useful for sizing strain gauges and load cells.
Max bending stress σ Surface strain ε Tip deflection δ Moment of inertia I
σ = 6FL/bh²,  ε = σ/E,  δ = FL³/3EI

Mobile Vibration Analyzer  →

Standalone page. Uses your phone's accelerometer to plot a live time-domain trace, FFT spectrum and waterfall. Best opened on a phone.
