What outcome happens when drive currents massively exceed forward maximums in LEDs?

A)Reduced light output at new bias
B)Accelerated efficiency degradation begins gently
C)Thermal runaway leading to destruction
D)Increased junction voltage is measurable

💡 Explanation

Catastrophic thermal runaway occurs from the exceeded current because the increased junction temperature causes decreased resistance and further current increases, therefore destruction is the result, rather than a slower degradation or recoverable reduced output.
