Does balancing a capacitor affect the stability of a high-frequency transformer?

By adding an offset in the carrier wave, the proposed capacitor voltage balance strategy can balance the input capacitor voltage which is beneficial for the high-frequency transformer. The small signal model is established and the results show that the balancing strategy will not affect the stability.

Why is transformer winding capacitance harmful?

Transformer winding capacitance is detrimental in three ways: (1) winding capacitance can drive the transformer into premature resonance; (2) winding capacitance can produce large primary current spikes when operating from a square wave source, (3) winding capacitance can produce electrostatic coupling to other circuits.
