Abstract
A modulator circuit for providing a modulating signal to the timing circuit in a constant off time current mode controller so as to extend the off time in response to an overload condition. A switch connects the output voltage from a current sense amplifier to the modulator circuit when the current mode controller requests maximum current. An overload condition exists when the voltage from the current sense amplifier exceeds a first threshold. The off time is extended to approach infinity when a second threshold is exceeded.
