Abstract

The invention relates to an improved ignition system for spark ignited combustion engines. According to the invention the voltage over a coil windingP on the primary side of the ignition coil is regulated to a sufficiently low voltage level during timed periods of the ignition cycle, such that at least one function out of three in total, i.e. prevention of premature spark-on-make, or spark suppression after onset of ignition, or improved frequency response between primary and secondary side of the ignition coil after end of ignition, is obtained. When applied in an inductive ignition system a differential amplifier () may be connected over the primary windingP regulating a control switchCS via a drive unit (). The invention is preferably implemented in ignition systems with ion sense circuitryC,R on the secondary side of the ignition coil, and implementing all three functions.
