← TechnologyWhich failure consequence arises when reverse recovery current exceeds a clamping diode junction's capacity?
A)Increased electromagnetic interference (EMI)✓
B)Reduced energy conversion efficiency
C)Elevated operating temperature stability
D)Enhanced harmonic distortion mitigation
💡 Explanation
Increased EMI occurs because rapid changes in reverse recovery current generate high-frequency noise components when the junction's capacity is exceeded. Therefore, EMI increases, rather than efficient energy conversion, due to parasitic oscillations arising under stressed conditions.
