摘要： A battery, an energy charge inductance, and a first transistor are connected in series in an ignition system. A primary winding and a second switching device are connected in series between the ground and a point between the energy charge inductance and the first switching device. A drive circuit switches periodically on and off the first switching device and the second switching device during multispark duration of the spark plug such that each switching device has a different switching status from each other. After the multispark duration, the drive circuit switches periodically on and off the second transistor with a short switching interval. The switching interval is set such that a relatively low voltage that almost causes a spark is impressed to the spark plug. An ion current detection is implemented by using this voltage as a power source.

摘要： A spark ignition system for igniting fuel in an internal combustion engine is described. The spark ignition system includes a magnetic core-coil assembly having a ferromagnetic amorphous metal magnetic core and driver electronics. The core-coil assembly and driver electronics are capable of operating with a rapid charge and discharge cycle to produce a high spark pulse rate.

摘要： An ignition system, of the type having ignition coils supplying energy to spark plugs in an internal combustion engine, includes apparatus to measure an electrical characteristic indicative of spark duration and generate a representative spark duration signal therefrom, or alternately to directly measure spark duration and generate a representative spark duration signal. Computational circuitry receives the spark duration signal and a spark duration setpoint signal, computes the error between the setpoint and the actual spark duration on a real-time basis, and modulates the energy in the high energy power supply to the ignition coils for maintaining a constant spark duration.
