Abstract

A control method of a current limit of a DC motor includes generating a reference voltage according to a preset current limit value of a DC motor; comparing the reference voltage with the voltage drop of a power control switch which drives the DC motor to generate a compare result; and controlling the power delivered to the DC motor according to the compare result in order to limit the current of the DC motor.
