  2. Ignition coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_coil

    The ignition coils for these can be combined into a single casing (a coil pack) and located away from the spark plugs; however it is increasingly common for coil-on-plug systems to be used, whereby the individual ignition coils are small units attached directly to the top of each spark plug. An advantage of coil-on-plug systems is that in the ...

    A firmware component of a microprocessor-controlled system. embedded system A computer system that controls a device or system, with no or a minimal user interface; for example, the ignition system in a car may have a microprocessor to control it. enameled wire Wire insulated with a thin flexible layer of enamel, used for electrical windings.

  5. Ignition system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_system

    As batteries became more common in cars (due to the increased usage of electric starter motors), magneto systems were replaced by systems using an induction coil.The 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen and the 1908 Ford Model T used a trembler coil ignition system, whereby the trembler interrupted the current through the coil and caused a rapid series of sparks during each firing.

    Network engineering may refer to: Internetworking, service requirements for switched telephone networks; Computer network engineering, the design and management of computer networks; Telecommunications Engineering, developing telecommunications network topologies; Broadcasting, spreading messages to a dispersed audience electronically

  7. Contact breaker - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_breaker

    The contact breaker is operated by an engine-driven cam.On an engine with a distributor, the contact breaker can be found beneath the distributor cap.The position of the contact breaker is set so that it opens (and hence generates a spark) at exactly the optimum moment to ignite the fuel/air mixture.

  8. Ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition

    Ignition coil, an induction coil in an automobile's ignition system that raises the battery's voltage to the levels necessary for a spark to ignite the fuel; High energy ignition, an electronic ignition system used by General Motors from 1974 to the mid-1980s

  9. Coil winding technology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coil_winding_technology

    In electrical engineering, coil winding is the manufacture of electromagnetic coils. Coils are used as components of circuits, and to provide the magnetic field of motors, transformers, and generators, and in the manufacture of loudspeakers and microphones. The shape and dimensions of a winding are designed to fulfill the particular purpose.
