Outline
• Performs optimum fuel injection according to engine operation conditions.
• The PCM determines the engine operation conditions based on the signals from each input device and drives the fuel injectors at the optimal fuel injection time (fuel injection amount) and the fuel injection timing to inject fuel.
• Optimally controls combustion based on fuel injection amount, fuel injection timing, number of fuel injections, and the fuel pressure to achieve emission performance improvement and higher engine output.

Operation
Injection timing
-
• Fuel injection timing is switched according to the engine operation conditions.
-
• Fuel injection is performed at the appropriate injection timing and amount based on the following sensor input signals synchronized with the crankshaft rotation during the intake or compression stroke at each cylinder.
-
― MAF sensor― MAP sensor― IAT sensor No.1― IAT sensor No.2― BARO sensor― CKP sensor― ECT sensor No.1, No.2
-
Injection time
-
• The PCM calculates the fuel injection amount according to the engine operation conditions as the fuel injection time and energizes the fuel injectors.
-
Fuel injector energization time and operation conditions
-
• The fuel injectors cause an operation delay with the start of energization from the PCM. The PCM calculates the fuel injection time by adding the non-injection time (ineffective injection time) due to the operation delay to the actual injection time (effective injection time), and energizes the fuel injectors for this time.
ac5uun00001135• The fuel injection time is based on the following formula: Fuel injection time = effective injection time + ineffective injection time-
Ineffective injection time
-
― The fuel injectors cause an operation delay with the start of energization due to a delay in the rise of operation current by coil inductance, mass of the needle valve and plunger, and spring resistance. This delay is the ineffective injection time.― The non-injection time is affected by the change in fuel pressure and the battery voltage. Accordingly, the PCM sets the non-injection time according to the fuel pressure and the battery voltage.
-
Effective injection time
-
― The time when the fuel injector valve is open, which is the actual fuel injection time, is called the effective injection time.
-
Determination of effective injection time
-
• The PCM divides the engine operation conditions into control zones according to engine speed and intake air amount, and determines the effective injection time at each control zone to perform optimum air/fuel ratio control in all engine driving ranges.
