Abstract: A programmable electronic ignition system is provided including a hand-held programmer, or in the alternative a computer, for controlling engine control parameters including revolutions per minutes limiters, ignition timing retards, gear shift controls, revolutions per minute switching, and fuel addition. The hand-held programmer or computer provides a menu driven interface which directs the user through the engine control parameters using easy to recognize terms. The programmable electronic ignition system can employ a cylinder location sensor to identify a predetermined cylinder for controlling individual cylinder ignition timing retards.

Abstract: An electronic ignition system includes a converter for receiving DC power from a source of DC power such as a battery. The convertor converts the DC power at low voltage to a high frequency signal which is stepped up to provide a higher voltage to a charge storage device such as a capacitor. The higher voltage on the capacitor is then made available to an ignition coil under the control of a microprocessor or a microcontroller for providing high voltage electrical energy to one or more spark plugs of an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A pulse width modulation control circuit includes a pulse width modulator which supplies a signal to a power switch tying together a d.c. signal generator and a motor and various sensing circuit including a control voltage disabler circuit, a motor voltage and current feedback circuit, and a low control voltage disabler circuit. All of the sensing circuits are appropriately designed to ensure that the various components of the circuit are not damaged under abnormal conditions whether due to motor loads heavier than rated or undesired changes in a.c. current input or control voltages.
