The ramp signal generating circuit compensates the slope of the ramp signal according to the slope compensation curve, and non-linearly adjusts the slope of the ramp signal in a predetermined duty ratio interval of a current ripple offset point of the power converter. The ramp signal generation circuit disclosed by the invention is particularly suitable for a multi-phase power converter and a multi-level power converter, and can effectively solve the problem of gate pulse mixing near a current ripple offset point. By adopting the slope modulation technology, the circuit optimizes the dynamic response performance while keeping the stability of the system. In a working interval of a non-current ripple offset point, the circuit maintains a lower slope signal slope to ensure the system bandwidth. In the preset duty ratio interval near the current ripple offset point, the slope of the ramp signal is smoothly improved in a nonlinear adjustment mode, so that the problem of system oscillation caused by sudden change of the slope in a traditional scheme is avoided.
