ABSTRACT:
A device provides for time-controlled self-destruction of a projectile by a batteryless, electronic self-destruct device. Several capacitors charged by a piezo element or a surge generator during firing are used in the flight phase for operational purposes. At least two of the capacitors are connected to the input of a comparator, so that the influence of a constantly modifiable operational voltage and the influence of a discharge of modifiable voltage levels by the piezo element or surge generator does not affect the time function.
