Abstract

An electronic ignition circuit for the self-destruction of a projectile fuse, including two condensers chargeable from a single generator, such as a piezoelectric cell. A delay circuit initiates the discharge of the first condenser through an igniter, with the generator raising the voltage of the first condenser to a level necessary for the igniter and that of the second condenser required for operation of the delay circuit.
