Abstract
A bipolar power switch (4) in series with the primary of an ignition coil (2) and a detection resistor (R1) associated with a voltage divider (R2, R3) supplying a voltage V.sub.D ; a controlled amplifier-comparator (9), the first input of which receives the measured voltage and the second input receives a reference voltage (8), and the output of which is connected with the base of the switch (4), this amplifier-comparator acting for limiting the base current when the measured voltage is approaching the reference voltage; a series resistor (R10) between the output of the amplifier-comparator (9) and the base of the switch (4); and a differential amplifier (11), the inputs of which are connected with the terminals of the series resistor and the output of which is connected with the first input of the amplifier-comparator.
