Which outcome occurs when a silicon wafer's parasitic capacitance increases unexpectedly?

💡 Explanation

Increased parasitic capacitance leads to higher gate switching delays because the gate requires more charge accumulation during switching due to increased capacitive load; therefore, the switching transitions become slower, rather than faster as implied by other changes.
