Hello,
This is my first visit to this forum.
So before I spend hours trying to describe my project, I'd like to know if there will any issues with my desire to build an ignition system for my off-road truck.
I ask because I attempted to describe my project on another electronics forum and after introducing myself and spending hours typing a couple of posts to outline my project, my thread was locked. The mod said they did not support automotive projects, or words to that effect, on their site but they were good enough to provide links to some that did, so this had apparently come up often before.
I did a brief search of this site and saw not much relating to anyone building their own ignition systems so I am unsure if my project will be welcome here.
I could use some advice on which microcontroller would be best suited to what I have in mind, the means with which to program it, and whether my scheme in general is do-able. Some advice on maybe better ways to do things would also be appreciated.
This is not a commercial product by any means. I am not trying to sell or promote anything for anybody. However, there are a few products that have done much work in this area and I have been shameless in using them as a resource.
If this is going to be a problem, please say so.
