Hi. The number of pulses received from a sensor divided by the number of magnets in the motor.

Hi again!

please correct me for folllwing example if it is wrong:
For 4 pole motor,
If i got one of 3 hall sensor output with frequency of 125 Hz, then speed will be:
2 pulse = 1 mechanical revolution.
So, for 125 Hz (125 pulse per second), speed = (125/2) revolution per second.
Which will give (62.5 * 60) = 3750 RPM

Am i right?
