← ScienceWhich consequence results when parasitic capacitance shorts a buck converter?
A)Increased switching MOSFET gate oxidation
B)Decreased inductor saturation margin
C)Uncontrolled switching frequency oscillation✓
D)Complete inductor core demagnetization loss
💡 Explanation
Uncontrolled switching frequency oscillation results from parasitic capacitance shorting because it introduces unintended resonant circuits within the converter; therefore, stability is lost rather than just lowered component ratings or inductor demagnetization.
