Which consequence results when exceeding capacitor ripple current rating?

A)Premature Equivalent Series Resistance increase
B)Inductance value shifts significantly
C)Decreased dielectric breakdown voltage
D)Increased parallel resistance and leakage

💡 Explanation

Exceeding the ripple current for a capacitor causes overheating due to its Equivalent Series Resistance; because of this, the premature degradation follows; therefore, the ESR increases rapidly, rather than changes to other intrinsic properties within normal operating parameters.
