← TechnologyWhich consequence results when inductive energy causes voltage spikes in a switching circuit?
A)Transistor junction avalanche breakdown✓
B)Capacitor dielectric over-polarization
C)Increased circuit conductive electromigration
D)Reduced resonant tank ringing frequency
💡 Explanation
Junction breakdown occurs following voltage spikes because transient voltage suppression relies on the Zener effect, therefore overvoltage damages or degrades components rather than capacitive or conduction effects that would manifest under steady-state conditions.
