Abstract:
In some examples, a circuit includes an input circuit, an output circuit, an auxiliary circuit, and a balancing circuit. The input circuit comprises a primary capacitor coupled to primary windings of a transformer. The output circuit comprises a secondary capacitor coupled to secondary windings of the transformer, wherein the secondary windings are coupled to the primary windings. The auxiliary circuit comprises auxiliary windings coupled to the primary windings. The balancing circuit is coupled to the output circuit, the auxiliary circuit, and the input circuit. The balancing circuit is configured to balance a voltage across the primary capacitor with a voltage across the secondary capacitor.
