Zusammenfassung:	A biased current-limit circuit for limiting a maximum output power of a power converter includes an oscillator for generating a pulse signal and an oscillation signal. A waveform generator generates a waveform signal in response to the oscillation signal. A sample-hold circuit is used to sample the waveform signal to generate a hold signal in response to a switching signal. The sample-hold circuit further samples the hold signal to generate a current-limit threshold in response to a second-sampling signal. A current comparator is utilized to compare a current-sensing signal with the current-limit threshold to limit a maximum on-time of the switching signal.
