Abstract

See full text

An engine air/fuel control system includes an apparatus and method for adaptively learning a reference voltage. Fuel delivered to the engine is trimmed by a feedback variable provided by integrating a two-state signal resulting from a comparison between the reference voltage and the exhaust gas oxygen sensor output. Each sample period of a microprocessor, a high voltage signal and low voltage signal are generated which track the outer envelope of the sensor signal. Calculation of a midpoint between high and low voltage signals provides the reference which instantaneously tracks the midpoint of the sensor signal.
