Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2015071044A1] The invention relates to a method for operating an ignition system (1) for an internal combustion engine, said system comprising a primary voltage generator (2) and a bypass (7), in particular a step-up voltage converter, for maintaining a spark generated by means of the primary voltage generator (2). Said method is characterised in that: a modified energy requirement is determined for an ignition spark that is maintained by means of the bypass (7); and the working mode of the bypass (7) is modified in response to said determination.
