← ScienceWhich failure results when capacitor Equivalent Series Inductance (ESL) increases?
A)Reduced ripple current filtering✓
B)Increased energy storage capacity
C)Enhanced transient voltage suppression
D)Improved frequency response bandwidth
💡 Explanation
Increased ESL causes higher impedance at high frequencies, reducing ripple filtering, because the inductive reactance opposes capacitive reactance. Therefore, less ripple is filtered, rather than storing energy more effectively or suppressing voltage better, properties tied to capacitance itself.
