An ignition device includes a capacitor 119, a semiconductor switch element 104 and an ignition control circuit 101, by which the cut-off of current supply to the ignition coil 105 is made gradual by supplying charge of the capacitor to the semiconductor switching element when the engine is stopped or the stop switch 117 is operated, the problems caused by undesired abrupt cut-off of the ignition current are eliminated.

An ignition device for an internal combustion engine, comprising: an angle signal generator for producing a timing signal in synchronism with an engine rotation, an ignition control device responsive to an output signal of said angle signal generator for performing a predetermined ignition timing calculation to produce an ignition timing control signal, and for detecting an engine stop condition to produce a stop signal, a semiconductor switch element having a control gate supplied with said ignition timing control signal for supplying current to an ignition coil upon receipt of said ignition timing control signal to on-off control the current supply to said ignition coil, a capacitor for supplying charge to said control gate of said semiconductor switch element, a switch circuit for maintaining said capacitor fully charged by continuously supplying a current thereto during normal running of the engine, and means for cutting said current to said capacitor off when either said ignition control device produces said stop signal or a stop switch is operated such that said capacitor gradually discharges to a level at which said switch element is rendered non-conductive, to thereby preclude dieseling or the like.
