TL;DR: In this article, a high efficiency high power DC to DC power converter and controller system for a CD ignition system with a simple converter controller (8) for controlling a power switch (2) of a transformer (1) operated as a flyback which includes a lossless snubber (6) and simple current sensor (8a) for sensing and controlling the power converter current, and further including ignition trigger conditioner (9) and phase conditioner(10) for operating a trigger output circuit (11) based on an octal counter (67) for triggering ignition coil circuits

TL;DR: In this paper, a high power high energy distributorless ignition system for multicylinder internal combustion engines using a single energy storage capacitor (4), a single leakage resonating inductor (20) with a switch SS partially or entirely across it, and one or more coils Ti with bi-directional switches Si and with single or double hith voltage outputs was presented.

TL;DR: In this article, an oil burner with a combustion chamber has a microwave energy source connected to the fuel supply line to heat the fuel and a air supply line connecting to the combustion chamber to apply an electric field at the nozzle.

TL;DR: A simple form of ignition driver and control circuit for the coil power switches of an inductive ignition system for setting and controlling the primary current Ipo in the coil primary windings of ignition coils of a multi-cylinder engine with "n" isolation diodes with only one common control switch, a comparator and a common input trigger circuit working in conjunction with a current sense circuit with partial temperature compensation and the comparator to set the power switch on-time duration as mentioned in this paper.
