Abstract: A resonant power converter is disclosed with a method of limiting output current therefrom. A switch operating frequency is regulated to provide output current to a load, wherein an error signal corresponds to a difference between the output current and a reference value. The error value is fed back to switch operating frequency control circuit via an optocoupler. A maximum detector diode current for the optocoupler is clamped to a maximum value when the error signal exceeds or equals a clamping threshold value. The clamping threshold value may correspond to a maximum output current at a maximum normal operating temperature, wherein the method utilizes the relationship between ambient temperature and the current transfer ratio (CTR) for the optocoupler. The CTR decreases when the detector diode current is clamped, which decreases output current and output power, reducing power loss in the enclosure and relieving thermal stress at high temperatures.
