Abstract

A switching power supply comprising a switching circuit and a controller. The controller comprises a preprocessing circuit, a first multiplier, a first comparing circuit and a logic circuit. The controller comprises a preprocessing circuit, a first multiplier, a first comparing circuit and a logic circuit. The preprocessing circuit generates a first multiplication input signal based on the input voltage and output voltage of the switching circuit. The first multiplier multiplies the first multiplication input signal by a second multiplication input signal and generates a first product signal. The first comparing circuit compares a current sensing signal representative of the input current with the first product signal and generates a first comparison signal. The logic circuit turns off a main switch in the switching circuit when the current sensing signal is larger than the first product signal.
