Abstract

PURPOSE:To detect the anomaly of each ignition coil by the simple constitution by installing an OR-circuit for taking in common each electric conduction signal for a plurality of ignition coils and detecting the anomaly of the ignition coil by judging the output level of the OR-circuit. CONSTITUTION:A CPU1 calculates igntion timing, electric conduction time, etc. according to each signal supplied from a sensor group 7. A frequency division circuit 2 distributes the ignition signals IGN calculated in the CPU1 to each cylinder. Transistors 3-6 drives the power transistor of each ignition coil. An indication circuit 8 displays the result of diagnosis. In the above- described constitution, diodes 9-12 which constitute an OR-circuit are arranged, and take out in common the signals IGN1-IGN4 for the ignition coils. Comparators 13-14 for detecting the breakage of wire and short-circuit of the primary coil of each ignition coil, having different voltage at the B and C points as standard voltage, are installed. Therefore, the taking-in of the signal for judging anomaly can be carried out through only one signal line from the A point.

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Application of the Invention] The invention relates to a control device for an internal combustion engine of an electric ignition type, such as an automobile gasoline engine, and in particular, to a control device for an internal combustion engine of an electric ignition type, such as a gasoline engine for an automobile, and in particular, a control device for an internal combustion engine using a plurality of ignition coils. The present invention relates to an engine control device that performs ignition control for each cylinder without independently performing primary current control for each cylinder.
□ [Background of the Invention] ′ In recent years, various self-diagnosis functions have been installed in automobile engines, etc., but in the self-diagnosis of the ignition coil in conventional engine control devices, the primary voltage of the ignition coil is not measured. Including 1, there is an abnormality such as a disconnection or short circuit in the ignition coil. However, in engines using multiple ignition oils, no particular consideration was given to self-diagnosis, as disclosed, for example, in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 55-96364. If multiple ignition coils are used, the primary voltage from each of the multiple ignition coils must be brought separately to the diagnostic section, and therefore conventional engine control systems require a reduction in the number of wires. There are disadvantages such as increase in size and the resulting increase in cost.
