Abstract: Provided is a battery-charging device that uses a full-bridge rectifier circuit in which each arm is composed of MOSFET as a circuit that rectifies an output of a magnet-type AC generator. The charging device comprises: an ON/OFF state establishment means that, on the basis of a polarity of a potential of each input terminal of the rectifier circuit, establishes ON/OFF state to be assumed by each MOSFET of the rectifier circuit when a battery is charged; a during-charging FET control means that performs control which matches the state of each MOSFET of the rectifier circuit with the state established by the ON/OFF state establishment means when the battery is charged; a short-circuit control means that performs short-circuit control which causes short-circuiting between output terminals of the generator when battery charging is paused; and a FET OFF means that generates a FET OFF time period in which all of the MOSFETs of the rectifier circuit assume an OFF state in a fixed cycle.

Abstract: An ignition control apparatus, e.g., for an internal combustion engine, includes a rotational speed calculation unit that calculates a rotational speed of an alternating current generator. A rotor of the alternating current generator is driven to rotate in synchronization with reciprocating motion of a piston of the internal combustion engine. An ignition timing determination unit determines an ignition timing of the internal combustion engine based on the rotational speed calculated by the rotational speed calculation unit. An ignition control unit supplies electric power to an ignition coil such that the internal combustion engine is ignited at the timing determined by the ignition timing determination unit.
