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 ...

3. Capacitor discharge ignition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_discharge_ignition

   When the triggering circuit receives the triggering signal, the triggering circuit stops the operation of the charging circuit, allowing the capacitor to discharge its output rapidly to the low inductance ignition coil. In a CD ignition, the ignition coil acts as a pulse transformer rather than an energy storage medium as it does in an ...

4. Trembler coil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trembler_coil

   A trembler coil, buzz coil or vibrator coil is a type of high-voltage ignition coil used in the ignition system of early automobiles, most notably the Benz Patent-Motorwagen and the Ford Model T. [2] Its distinguishing feature is a vibrating magnetically-activated contact called a trembler or interrupter , [ 3 ] [ 1 ] which breaks the primary ...

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.

6. High energy ignition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_energy_ignition

   High energy ignition, also known as H.E.I., is an electronic ignition system designed by the Delco-Remy Division of General Motors. It was used on all GM vehicles, at least in the North American market, from 1975 through the mid-1980s.

7. Contact breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_breaker

   As well as suppressing arcing, it helps boost the coil output by creating a resonant LC circuit with the coil windings. [ 1 ] A drawback of using a mechanical switch as part of the ignition timing is that it is not very precise, needs regular adjustment of the dwell (contact) angle, and at higher revolutions, its mass becomes significant ...
