I have come close to touching base with someone who did this (in 
about 1970) but failed.  I believe Bosch keeps these secret even 
though there is no good reason any more.  The real problem is that 
the ECU is so reliable that there is no incentive to develop the 
technique.  I have never had a bad one.  Bosch still has a rebuild 
program, so if you think you have a bad one, or perhaps one that has 
just drifted out of tolerance, you can still exchange it for a good 
one.

If you ever come across schematics, PLEASE let me in on it!

BTW, what do you mean by the TSP?
