Cool

The axial gear differential/hydraulic speed control section in the IDG converts a varying engine input speed of 4,650 - 9,200 rpm, to a constant output speed of 12,000 ±150 rpm. The constant output speed allows the generator section of the IDG to produce ac power with a frequency of 400 ±5 Hz.
