ABSTRACT:
An ignition system for internal combustion engines in which a capacitor is charged at each one-polarity half-cycle of the output of a magneto generator and then the capacitor is discharged through a thyristor and a primary coil of an ignition coil when the thyristor is turned on. To turn on the thyristor, a gate-cathode current is supplied through a semiconductor switching element from an auxiliary capacitor which is charged by a timing generator which generates an output prior to only a predetermined ignition time. Although the semiconductor switching element is turned on by an ignition signal generating means, for example, a transformer, when the transformer produces an ignition signal at each the other-polarity half-cycle of the magneto generator output, the gate-cathode current is supplied to the thyristor only when the auxiliary capacitor has been charged by the timing generator.
