In a control apparatus for an internal combustion engine for receiving outputs of a crank angle sensor, air flow sensor, etc., calculating control values from these outputs using a microcomputer to actuate actuators; calculated timings at which the respective actuators are deactuated are compared in advance with each other, the control value for the actuator which should be deactuated earliest is stored in an output compare register, and a deactuation signal for the actuator is generated with count matching of two inputs to a comparator of the output compare register. Thus the respective actuators are sequentially controlled.

A control apparatus for controlling a plurality of actuators for an internal combustion engine, comprising: a controller for calculating respective count values representing control timings in a sequence of control timings at which respective ones of said plurality of actuators are to be controlled; storing means for storing said respective count values associated with different actuators as they are calculated by said controller along with information identifying an actuator associated with each count value; and a number of compare register units, said number being less than the number of actuators to be controlled, each compare register unit having a counter connected to a pulse signal source for counting pulse signals, a compare register for holding a count value transferred from said storing means by said controller and a comparator connected to said counter and said compare register for outputting a control signal to said controller to cause said controller to control the actuator associated with the count value held in said compare register as identified by the information stored in said storing means and to transfer another count value from said storing means to a compare register in a compare register unit.
