Abstract:
An over current protecting circuit, used with a switching converter having a switch, having: a current limiting circuit, configured to receive a limit indicating signal and to provide an on time signal to control an on time period of the switch based on the limit indicating signal, wherein if the limit indicating signal indicates a current flowing through the switch of the switching converter is larger than a limiting threshold, the on time period of a next switching cycle of the switch is subtracted with a first period, otherwise, the on time period of the switch of the next switching cycle is added with a second period; wherein a maximum on time period of the switch is fixed to be an on time reference.

Claim (Index 8):
A switching converter, converting power by turning on and off a switch, comprising:\n a comparing circuit, configured to receive a reference signal and a feedback signal indicative of an output power of the switching converter, and to generate a comparing signal based on a comparison result of the feedback signal and the reference signal; an on time regulator, configured to receive the comparing signal and a switching control signal turning on and off the switch, and to provide an on time regulating signal based on a comparison result of the switching control signal and the comparing signal; and an over current protecting circuit having a current limiting circuit configured to receive a limit indicating signal and to provide an on time signal to control an on time period of the switch based on the limit indicating signal, wherein if the limit indicating signal indicates a current flowing through the switch of the switching converter is larger than a limiting threshold, the on time period of the switch of a next switching cycle is decreased with a first period compared to the on time period of the switch of a current switching cycle, otherwise, the on time period of the switch of the next switching cycle is increased with a second period; wherein the on time regulating signal is added to the on time signal of the next switching cycle to control the on time period of the switch; and wherein a maximum on time period of the switch is fixed to be an on time reference.
