Abstract

The ignition circuit, for a gas cigarette lighter, consists of a complementary Darlington pair oscillator supplied from a battery and acting as DC/DC converter. The oscillator's output is rectified and used to charge a capacitor. The capacitor is discharged by e.g. a thyristor across the primary of the voltage step-up transformer to those secondary the spark gap is connected. The capacitor (C2) discharges through a zener diode (Z) whose canode is coupled to the thyristor gate. This anode is also coupled back over two resistors (R6, R2) to the input side of the oscillator (T1, T2). A second capacitor (C1) is charged from the current through the zener diode and blocks the oscillator. This capacitor then discharges and oscillations can only be restarted by depressing the ignition button once again.
