ABSTRACT:
An electronic governor control for an automotive engine that prevents the speed of the engine from exceeding a predetermined limit. The electronic circuitry responds to ignition pulses and limits the throttle opening of the vehicle to maintain the predetermined speed limit. The electronic governor control also includes circuitry to prevent engine overshoot of the predetermined limit by monitoring the rate of acceleration and adjusting the predetermined limit to anticipate and initiate governor control prior to the engine reaching the predetermined speed limit. Circuitry is also included which allows the governor control to retain control of the engine until the accelerator control reduces the speed of the engine to a speed value below the predetermined limit.
