Which consequence results when reverse bias protection fails within inverter gate-drive circuitry?

A)Increased gate capacitance degradation rate
B)Shoot-through current in inverter leg
C)Oscillation within the synchronous rectification
D)Transformer saturation within flyback converter

💡 Explanation

Shoot-through occurs because parasitic capacitance causes a gate voltage increase; failure to clamp reverse voltage with suitable circuit protection implies both transistors in an inverter leg conduct momentarily. Therefore excessive current damages FET, rather than capacitance effects under normal operation.
