← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when parasitic capacitance within a high-frequency switching circuit resonates with stray inductance?
A)Increased electromagnetic interference emissions✓
B)Reduced switching losses in transistors
C)Improved circuit efficiency and stability
D)Decreased circuit response time
💡 Explanation
When parasitic capacitance resonates with stray inductance, a resonant circuit forms because energy oscillates between the capacitor and inductor, causing high-frequency oscillations and amplified current/voltage spikes. Therefore increased EMI emissions results, rather than benefits such as reduced losses, stability or faster response which require specific circuit design mitigation for resonance.
