Abstract
An apparatus and technique that reduces induced cross-talk current between transformer windings. The apparatus includes a transformer having a first secondary winding that provides a first voltage relative to earth ground, a second secondary winding that provides a second voltage relative to floating ground, and a shield disposed between the first and second secondary windings. A correction circuit connected to the first secondary winding is configured to generate a correction voltage. The correction voltage drives a shield to induce a correction current into the second secondary winding to reduce cross-talk current induced between the first and second secondary windings.
