Abstract
The control device includes a microcomputer which controls operation of the internal combustion engine, a power regulator which outputs a direct current regulated voltage regulated from electric power of the AC generator, a 5V regulator which receives an output from the power regulator and supplies it to the microcomputer; a first capacitor with a small capacity connected to an output of the power regulator, plural second capacitors connected in parallel with the first capacitor; and plural opening and closing means connected in series to the plural second capacitors, respectively. The opening and closing means are controlled to be opened and closed by the microcomputer so that the second capacitors are charged when the output of the power regulator has reached an ON voltage below the regulated voltage.
