← ScienceWhich consequence results when dielectric breakdown occurs in capacitive sensors?
A)Signal distortion from increased leakage✓
B)Increased sensor measurement sensitivity
C)Operating resonant frequency decreases
D)Improved long-term signal stability
💡 Explanation
When dielectric breakdown occurs, a surge current damages sensor capacitors, increasing leakage. Therefore, the signal distorts from noise because the capacitance's insulation fails, rather than improving, and the resonant properties change little without further structural alteration.
