Which operational consequence occurs when reverse recovery charge increases greatly in a fast-switching diode?

💡 Explanation

Increased reverse recovery charge means that during turn-off, the diode conducts current for a longer period due to stored charge; this phenomenon is the Reverse Recovery Effect; therefore, the prolonged current flow leads to faster current changes, because di/dt increases, leading to larger electromagnetic emissions, rather than lower noise or improved stability.
