    摘要: Disclosure includes a control method for over voltage protection, suitable for a power converter. The power converter has a rectifier for rectifying an alternative-current voltage into a direct-current input voltage. The direct-current input voltage is sensed and determined whether it locates in a valley. A detection voltage is provided, capable of representing the direct-current input voltage. The detection voltage is compared with a predetermined reference voltage. When the detection voltage exceeds the predetermined reference voltage and the direct-current input voltage is in the valley, an OVP signal is provided to stop the power conversion of the power converter.

An output current estimator in a controller is configured for receiving a current-sense signal representing an inductor current flowing through the inductive device and a discharge-time signal indicating a discharge time of the inductive device. The output current estimator generates a charge current in response to the discharge-time signal and the current-sense signal, thereby the charge current substantially corresponding to an output current that the switched mode power supply outputs to a load. The charge current is limited not to exceed a maximum value. A current limiter is configured for limiting the current-sense signal when the charge current is the maximum value.
