KV SERIES HARDWARE MANUAL WWW.EMTRON.WORLD 1.0 Analog Inputs The KV series supports up to 24, 12-bit high resolution analog input channels. KV ECU Analog Inputs KV12 KV16 KV16M 1.1 Analog Input Channels 1- 16/24 All analog input channels are sampled using high resolution 12-bit analog to digital converters with a 0.0 - 5.000V input range.
Below is a scope trace showing a signal over one cycle, scaled at 2V/Div. A conventional oscilloscope or the Emtron scope can be used to view a signal to best determine the correct arming thresholds. The preferred method is to find the lowest amplitude during one cycle (highlighted by the red circle below) and make the arming threshold 60% of that value.
Auxiliary channels 13-16 are the only outputs with enough current to power such solenoids. It is strongly recommended to run an external flywheel diode to prevent long term ECU damage. If the output is modulated a flywheel diode MUST be installed (See Emtron www for details).
KV SERIES HARDWARE MANUAL WWW.EMTRON.WORLD 4.0 Injector Outputs The KV series supports from 8 up to 16 injector outputs and will control both modes of injection; Saturated and Peak and Hold. KV ECU Injector Outputs KV12 KV16 KV16M 4.1 Injector Control Precise and consistent control is also gained with a high 70V flyback voltage, allowing for rapid current reduction at switch Off time.
KV SERIES HARDWARE MANUAL WWW.EMTRON.WORLD 5.0 Ignition Outputs The KV series supports from 8 up to 12 Ignition channels with logic level outputs. KV ECU Ignition Outputs KV12 KV16 KV16M 5.1 Ignition Control When configured for ignition, these outputs are logic level drivers, capable of sourcing current in the range of 35 - 70mA.
ECU Supply power can be shared, assuming the wire gauge has a sufficient rating for the current demand. In DBW applications power to this pin MUST come from an ECU controlled DBW Relay. See KV Series Power Distribution Wiring - Emtron.pdf for more information on how this should be wired.
▪ 15.0A Max (pin limited) 10.0 Regulated Voltage Outputs The KV series regulated supplies are designed for the harsh automotive environment. They include protection from reverse battery, jump starting transient voltage surges and automatic shutdown when the output is shorted to ground.
