Default Synchronizer & Synchrophaser

Does anyone have a good reference, diagram, link, or explanation for the mechanics behind synchronizer & synchrophaser? I've done extensive research on the internet & FAA approved handbooks, but have not encountered too much system detail.

I understand that there are magnets that rotate with the prop along with stationary magnets on the spinner, which send electric signals to a sync box that then sends signals to the prop governor to regulate RPM.

If I have a misunderstanding of the system so far, please correct me. But I'm looking for specifics about HOW the electrical signals result in the mechanical movement of the prop governor.

Thanks.
