A knock controller decides the amount of delay based on the count value of the pulses.

The engine cylinders belonging to each cylinder group are so selected as not to be controlled in succession for ignition. In making misfire decision, the electronic control unit (2) makes use of the ion current detection signal derived from the ion current detection circuit means provided in association with the cylinder group which includes the engine cylinder currently subjected to the ignition control.

    摘要: An ignition apparatus for an internal combustion engine is able to reduce generation of noise and energy loss due to wiring to a substantial extent. A capacitor 4 is connected at one end thereof to a DC power supply so as to be charged thereby, and at the other end thereof to an ignition coil 5. A switching element 9 is connected between the capacitor and a primary winding of the ignition coil to form part of a discharge path through which the capacitor discharges. The switching element is made conductive by means of an ignition or trigger signal which is generated by a signal generator in synchronism with the rotation of the engine, so that the charged capacitor discharges through the primary winding of the ignition coil. The capacitor, the ignition coil and the switching element are formed integrally with each other, housed in a single casing 13 and connected to each other without the use of a wire harness.

    摘要: An LCDI-type ignition apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes first and second capacitors connected to an ignition coil and a voltage source for generating a charging voltage for the capacitors. The first capacitor is for producing an initial discharge of a spark plug, and the second capacitor is for lengthening the discharge of the spark plug after discharge has been initiated by the first capacitor. In one form of the invention, the second capacitor is charged only after the first capacitor has been charged by the voltage source to a prescribed voltage sufficient to produce a suitable discharge of the spark plug. As a result, even when the engine is operating at a high rotational speed and the time between consecutive firings of the engine is small, an adequate ignition voltage can be obtained. In another form of the invention, the charging voltage(s) of one or both of the capacitors is or are varied in accordance with the one or more engine operating conditions. Each charging voltage can be controlled to the minimum necessary value based on the present engine operating conditions.
