← ScienceWhich consequence results when parasitic capacitance couples oscillator stages?
A)Spurious oscillations spontaneously initiate✓
B)Harmonic output power is maximized
C)Efficiency of impedance matching improves
D)Crystal resonant frequency stabilizes further
💡 Explanation
Parasitic capacitance introduces unwanted signal feedback via capacitive coupling, therefore spurious oscillations initiate because positive feedback overcomes damping, rather than improving efficiency due to unintended resonant circuits formed.
