摘要： An electronic ignition system for an internal combustion engine. In a first embodiment an input pulse is generated at the same point in each revolution of the engine. Clock pulses at a first pulse rate are counted between consecutive input pulses. The resulting count signal is transferred to a down counter which, between the consecutive input pulses, counts down at a faster rate. For an eight cylinder engine this faster rate is four times the first pulse rate, for a six cylinder engine it is three times the first pulse rate, and for a four cylinder engine it is twice the first pulse rate. In a second embodiment a computed count signal is reset into a down counter which is then counted down. In each embodiment, when the down counter reaches its zero count level the count signal is again preset into it so that it recycles. Each time the down counter passes a pre-selected count level, an output pulse is generated. Four output lines are provided for use with an eight cylinder engine, three for a six cylinder engine, and two for a four cylinder engine. The output pulses are applied to each output line in turn. Thus, during each engine revolution each output line receives a pulse, and during two engine revolutions each cylinder of the engine receives a pulse. In the event of operation at excessively high speed, only one out of a pre-selected number of pulses is applied and the pulses are sequenced among the output lines to prevent fouling of sparkplugs while inhibiting the excessively high speed operation.

摘要： An ignition system for energizing an ignition coil of an internal combustion engine. The system including a high voltage unit for energizing the ignition coil of the engine, a memory for storing system function indices and a processor. The processor receives a timing signal from an engine speed pick-up device, accesses the memory to retrieve the system function indices, and causes the high voltage unit to energize the ignition coil based on the system function indices and the frequency of the timing signal. System function indices data includes ignition timing curve data with a nominal or base curve and a plurality of adjustment timing curves for cylinder-specific timing calibration. The system also provides for optimal multiple sparking at low engine speeds by taking into consideration battery voltage and capacitor charge times. The system also includes a programmer in communication with the processor for allowing a user to instruct the processor to select and modify the system function indices during engine operation. The system also supports a programmable launch control feature for reducing traction loss during take-off.
