Which outcome occurs when a MOSFET used in a boost converter experiences avalanche breakdown?

💡 Explanation

Increased power dissipation losses occur because avalanche breakdown causes a large current to flow through the already stressed MOSFET, inducing significant resistive power loss as heat; therefore, the MOSFET can fail, rather than performing desired voltage transformation without overheating under normal load.
