A transistor switch connected in series with the primary winding of the ignition coil permits and blocks current flow through the coil when in a conductive and non-conductive state respectively. Normally, the switch is "on" and "off" respectively in the presence and absence of an ignition current pulse furnished in synchronism with the rotation of the crankshaft of the engine. For increasing speeds, the time the switch is "on" prior to the ignition time is increased by switching it to the conductive state when the charge on a control capacitor reaches a predetermined charge. The charge on the control capacitor is changed in a first direction following receipt of each ignition signal. The rate of change of charge depends upon the resistance of the emitter-collector circuit of a first control transistor. The latter is, in turn, determined by the charge on an integrator capacitor which varies with changes in engine speed. When the charge on the control capacitor reaches a predetermined charge, the output transistor switch to the conductive state allowing current flow in the ignition coil. |
