Abstract
A method of operating a DC-DC converter according to the current mode control is provided. A current measuring signal for determining a turn-off time of a converter switching element is supplied to a PWM controller and a voltage that is proportional to the current measuring signal is compared by a comparator to a reference voltage. When the reference voltage is exceeded, the converter switching element is turned off.
