Abstract
A voltage generating ignition distributor for an internal combustion engine that has a pickup coil and a magnetic rotor. In order to prevent high frequency voltages, developed at the gap between the rotor contact and the outer electrodes of the distributor cap, from distorting the voltage generated in the pickup coil the outer turns of the pickup coil are grounded through a capacitance. The outer turns of the pickup coil thus form a grounded shield for the inner turns of the pickup coil at the high frequency of the voltage at the rotor gap discharge.
