Next, the operation of the above conventional example will be described. In FIG. 1, the output of the knocking sensor 2 is impedance-converted by the buffer 3, one of which enters the comparator 17 and the other of which is amplified and half-wave rectified by the half-wave rectifying and amplifying device 19. The half-wave rectified output is averaged by the averaging circuit 18, A / D converted by the A / D converter 22, and input to the CPU 26. The CPU 26 modifies this AD conversion value with a certain constant and outputs it to the D / A converter 21 to create a reference signal. The comparator 17 compares the knocking sensor output with the reference signal from the D / A converter 21, outputs a pulse when the knocking sensor signal is larger than the reference signal, and inputs the output determined to have knocking to the CPU 26. The CPU 26 outputs an ignition timing output signal from the ignition timing signal and the knocking determination output of the angular position detector 31, drives the power transistor 32, and gives an ignition signal to the ignition plug 34. By the way, the buffer 3 for processing the knocking sensor signal, the half-wave rectifier and amplifier 9, the comparator 17, the D / A converter 21, and the A / D.
The power supply voltage of the converter 22 is generally selected to be 8 to 9 V in view of the voltage of the battery, the signal and the dynamic range of the circuit. The midpoint potential of the circuit is generally 1 /
2 is selected and the power supply voltage is 8V, the midpoint potential is 4V
Becomes The sensor signal is impedance-converted by the buffer 3 and the signal fluctuates around the midpoint potential, and a signal having a level higher than the midpoint potential is half-wave rectified and averaged. Since these signal levels extend over the entire power supply voltage of 8V, the processing result of the sensor signal cannot be directly connected to the CPU 26 operating at 5V. FIG. 2 shows the waveform of each part of the above conventional example. In FIG. 2, a is an ignition timing signal, b
Is a sensor signal, which is the output waveform of the buffer 3 and the reference signal, and C is the output of the half-wave rectifier and the averaging circuit 18.

As described above, in the above conventional example, the analog signal processing unit for the knocking sensor signal is generally selected to have a power supply voltage of 8 to 9V (8V in FIG. 1) in view of the ease of handling the signal and the dynamic range of the amplifier. The power supply voltage of the digital signal processing unit such as the CPU 26 is generally 5V. Therefore, level conversion is required between the analog signal processing section and the digital signal processing section. For example, in FIG. 1, the output of the comparator 17 and the A / D converter 22 is changed from 8V to 5V, and the output from the CPU 26 is changed to D / A.

In FIG. 3, the signal of the knocking sensor 1 is impedance-converted by the buffer 3 and a signal is output centering on the midpoint potential 4V. One of the signals of the buffer 3 is input to the comparator 17, but it is 5V + V D due to the diode 37 connected to 5V.
Since it is clamped by (V D is the forward voltage of the diode 37), it can be directly connected to the comparator 17 operating at 5V. The other output of the buffer 3 is amplified by the inverting amplifier 7 and half-wave rectified by the half-wave rectifier 9. However, the output of the half-wave rectifier 9 is different from that of the conventional example by the diode 14
Since the directions of 15 and 15 are opposite, the signal lower than the midpoint potential is half-wave rectified unlike the waveform of FIG. 2c. The output obtained by averaging this output by the averaging circuit 9 is at a level below the midpoint potential, and therefore can be directly input to the A / D converter 22 operating at 5V. Therefore, based on the output of the A / D converter 22, the D / A converter 21 that generates a reference signal for determining knocking can also operate at 5 V, so that the analog processing unit and the digital processing unit can be directly connected. it can.

As can be seen from FIG. 5, the determination and processing of the knocking sensor signal are performed at the midpoint potential (for example, 4V) or less, so that the signal can be directly connected to a digital signal processing unit operating at 5V such as a CPU.
