The Bootstrap capacitor will charge through the primary inductor?
Speaking of using bootstrap half bridge drivers to drive two transistor forward converters, this is not without problems.
Basso, in his book "switch mode power supplies", on pages 760,761 states that some extra components are needed to be used aswell if you are going to use a bootstrap high side drive ic for a 2 transistor forward converter (as attached)
..as discussed, the alternative to the additional compoennts offered by Basso is to use a bootstrap half bridge drive but as in the linked post of post#31
