Electronic circuit for generating current or voltage pulses, such as ignition sparks for internal combustion engines, with storage capacitors

摘要

The circuit comprises a DC energy source (1) with poles (2,3) coupled a first charged storage capacitor (4). There is at least one energizable switch (5), and at least one transformer (6) operated by the pulses. The circuit contains at least one further storage capacitor (7) in series with the energizable switch and the transformer, thus being coupled to the poles of the first capacitor. Preferably the circuit comprises a current circuit for charging each storage capacitor. Each capacitor in the circuit section is contained in both current circuits. Independent claims are included for an ignition spark generating process.
