← TechnologyWhich consequence results when excessive reverse voltage is applied to an LED array used in stadium lighting?
A)Dielectric breakdown and current leakage✓
B)Increased forward voltage requirement develops
C)Decrease in radiative recombination efficiency
D)Material phase change to amorphous state
💡 Explanation
Applying excessive reverse voltage to an LED array causes dielectric breakdown because the electric field exceeds the material's capability. Consequently, there is unintended current leakage, leading to device failure, therefore breakdown, rather than simply forward voltage changes or emission decreases within operating parameters.
