An ignition coil is used in the of a to the battery voltage to the much higher voltages required to operate the (s). The spark plugs then use this burst of high-voltage electricity to ignite the . The ignition coil is constructed of two sets of coils wound around an iron core. An ignition coil is used in the ignition system of a spark-ignition engine to transform the battery voltage to the much higher voltages required to operate the spark plug (s). [pdf]
An Ignition Coil is an induction coil that converts current from a car battery (12V) into the high-voltage sparks required by spark plugs in a car engine. An Ignition coil is like a high voltage transformer, and like a transformer, contains two windings (primary and secondary) wrapped around a steel/iron core.
The primary coil has a few number coil and it is wound over the secondary coil. The entire coil is assembled to a compact unit. Low voltage (12 volts) current from the battery is stepped up to high voltage (10,000 volts) in the ignition coil by the principle of electromagnetic induction.
The main components of a battery ignition system are battery, ignition switch, ballast resistor, ignition coil, contact breaker, capacitor, distributor and spark plug. The source of high voltage/energy for the spark plug is the ignition coil, hence it is also called ignition coil system.
The battery and coil ignition system are old and still used in lots of vehicles. It is being used in light commercial vehicles and two-wheelers bikes. It is one of the most common types of ignition systems and is usually one of the most used in two-wheelers.
Following figure shows a diagram of a conventional battery ignition system. Battery is the primary energy source for the system. One end of the battery is grounded to engine frame. The other end is connected to the primary terminal of the ignition coil through ballast and ignition switch.
The connection of the ignition switch to the battery is made through the ignition coil. One end of the switch is connected to the primary winding of an ignition coil whereas another end is connected with the battery. The ignition coil is kind of a voltage transformer. It will step up the battery of 12V to higher voltage like (10000 V).

Practical capacitors are available commercially in many different forms. The type of internal dielectric, the structure of the plates and the device packaging all strongly affect the characteristics of the capacitor, and its applications. Values available range from very low (picofarad range; while arbitrarily low values are in principle possible, stray (parasitic) capacitance in any circuit is t. The characteristics of a capacitors define its temperature, voltage rating and capacitance range as well as its use in a particular application [pdf]
The characteristics of capacitors are frequency-dependent. At low frequencies, they function as expected, however, the performance of capacitors changes at higher frequencies because of factors like equivalent series resistance (ESR) and equivalent series inductance (ESL.
A capacitor is one of the basic circuit components in electrical and electronic circuits. Capacitors are used to store energy in the form of an electrostatic field. Capacitors are available in several different types and sizes. Each type of capacitor has its unique characteristics and specifications that impact its performance.
In electrical engineering, a capacitor is a device that stores electrical energy by accumulating electric charges on two closely spaced surfaces that are insulated from each other. The capacitor was originally known as the condenser, a term still encountered in a few compound names, such as the condenser microphone.
Also, because capacitors store the energy of the electrons in the form of an electrical charge on the plates the larger the plates and/or smaller their separation the greater will be the charge that the capacitor holds for any given voltage across its plates. In other words, larger plates, smaller distance, more capacitance.
Because the conductors (or plates) are close together, the opposite charges on the conductors attract one another due to their electric fields, allowing the capacitor to store more charge for a given voltage than when the conductors are separated, yielding a larger capacitance.
Capacitance is defined as being that a capacitor has the capacitance of One Farad when a charge of One Coulomb is stored on the plates by a voltage of One volt. Note that capacitance, C is always positive in value and has no negative units.

A capacitor is a passive device on a circuit board that stores electrical energy in an electric field by virtue of accumulating electric charges on two close surfaces insulated from each other.
