A power conversion apparatus with adjustable leading-edge-blanking (LEB) time and an over current protection (OCP) method thereof are provided. In the OCP method, a pulse-width-modulation (PWM) signal is generated according to the loading status of an electronic device to switch a power switch in the power conversion apparatus and thus the power conversion apparatus to supply an output voltage to the electronic device. A variable or fixed LEB signal is generated according to the PWM signal and the rising and falling edges of a spike signal induced at turn-on instant of the power switch. The PWM signal is constantly/continuously generated to switch the power switch during an enabling period/phase of the variable or fixed LEB signal, and whether an over current is produced in the power conversion apparatus is constantly detected to determine whether to activate an OCP mechanism during a disabling period/phase of the variable or fixed LEB signal.
A power conversion apparatus, comprising:
An over current protection (OCP) method, suitable for a power conversion apparatus, the OCP method comprising:
