[Diy_efi] Ignition Hardware Driver Stage

I should not have said TTL, 0 to 5 volts is correct. The
modules amplify the pickup coil signal and send it to the ECM 
as a reference pulse.

The ECM drives the EST line to start dwell (active EST) then
fire the coil (inactive EST). The bypass allows the module to
fire the coil independent of the EST line (for setting the 
timing).

As far as I know the module will fire the coil with out the
use of the pickup coil. That is a separate circuit.
