A transformer includes first and second primary windings serially electrically connected in a primary-side series combination. The transformer further includes a secondary winding disposed between the first primary winding and the second primary winding. The transformer further includes first and second shielding windings serially electrically connected in a shielding series combination. The first shielding winding is disposed between the first primary winding and the secondary winding, and the second shielding winding is disposed between the second primary winding and the secondary winding.
