The reason why the ignition coil can turn the low voltage on the car into high voltage is because it has the same form as an ordinary transformer, and the turns ratio of the primary coil and the secondary coil is large. However, the working mode of the ignition coil is different from that of an ordinary transformer. The ordinary transformer works continuously, while the ignition coil works intermittently. It repeatedly stores and discharges energy at different frequencies according to different engine speeds.
