Overcurrent threshold correction for ignition control

A system for controlling ignition coils, the system comprising:

• a control circuit having a first and second output, the first output being configured to control charging of a first coil, the second output being configured to control charging of a second coil;
• an overcurrent detection circuit configured to adjust detection of an overcurrent condition when charging of a first coil overlaps with charging of the second coil;
• a first and second switch, the first output being configured to control the first switch and the second output being configured to control the second switch, the first switch being in electrical series connection with the first coil and the second switch being in electrical series connection with the second coil, the first switch and first coil being in electrical parallel connection with the second switch and the second coil, the first and second switch being in communication with the overcurrent detection circuit at a node, thereby allowing a first current flowing though the first coil and a second current flowing through the second coil to both be provided to the overcurrent detection circuit through the node.
