Capacitor discharge ignition pressure inside the cylinder. Capacitor discharge ignition Capacitor discharge ignition (CDI) or thyristor ignition is a type of automotive electronic ignition system which is widely used in outboard motors, motorcycles, lawn mowers, chainsaws, small engines, turbine-powered aircraft, and some cars. It was originally developed to overcome the long charging times associated with high inductance coils used in inductive discharge ignition (IDI) systems, making the ignition system more suitable for high engine speeds (for small engines, racing engines and rotary engines). The capacitive-discharge ignition uses capacitor discharge current to the coil to fire the spark plugs. The history of the capacitor
Archaic humans In this case the standard taxonomy is used, i.e. "Homo rhodesiensis", or "Homo neanderthalensis". The evolutionary dividing lines that separate modern humans from archaic humans and archaic humans from "Homo erectus" are unclear. The earliest known fossils of anatomically modern humans such as the Omo remains from 195,000 years ago, "Homo sapiens idaltu" from 160,000 years ago, and Qafzeh remains from 90,000 years ago are recognizably modern humans. However, these early modern humans do possess a number of archaic traits, such as moderate, but not prominent, brow ridges. The emergence of archaic humans is sometimes used as an example of
