Use this electronics calculation for a first-pass component, converter, signal, motor, or sensor estimate when the stated operating conditions and units match the device data.

Synchronous Speed (rpm) (rpm)

Required number input.

Rotor Speed (rpm) (rpm)

Required number input.

Calculate induction-motor slip as the percentage difference between synchronous and rotor speed relative to synchronous speed. The tool evaluates the supplied inputs together and returns the named outputs below; it does not infer omitted operating conditions or change the units shown.^[1]

Slip (%) (%)

The resulting slip (%) returned as a number.

• Motor constants, current, torque, speed, reactive power, and propeller thrust depend on winding temperature, controller, supply sag, losses, saturation, load curve, airflow, and operating point. Nameplate constants and ideal propeller laws need test data for final sizing.
• Use finite inputs in the displayed units and preserve more precision than the final presentation requires. Independently verify safety-critical, financial, compliance, or production decisions.

Check the result against the current datasheet and worst-case operating corners, then verify the circuit or measurement with simulation and bench testing where failure matters.

• Motor Synchronous Speed

  Calculate AC motor synchronous speed in RPM from electrical frequency and an even number of magnetic poles, using 120f/P.

• Humidity Sensor Capacitance

  Calculate a linear humidity sensor's capacitance from its calibrated zero-RH capacitance and sensitivity per percentage point of relative humidity.

• Opamp Input Offset Current

  Calculate op-amp input offset current as the absolute difference between the two input bias currents, using signed current measurements.
