The invention relates to a method and a circuit to control the output voltage and current of a switched-mode power supply. In order to restrict the output current, a voltage value proportional to the primary current of a switched-mode power supply is measured and compared to a variable reference voltage Uext the value of which is determined by the total effect of the constant charging current of a capacitor Cext and a discharge circuit operating in step with the secondary diode of the power supply. If the voltage value proportional to the primary current is bigger than said reference voltage, the switching pulses of the primary current switch are shortened. In order to restrict the output voltage, an image voltage is generated for the secondary voltage of the power supply transformer which is filtered and rectified and combined with the aforementioned reference voltage in order to produce pulse-width-modulated switching pulses of the primary current switch.
