← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when SRAM transistors shrink approaching quantum limits?
A)Increased bit-flip error rates✓
B)Reduced power consumption linearly
C)Improved transistor switching speed
D)Static voltage threshold stabilizes
💡 Explanation
Increased bit-flip error rates occur because quantum tunneling allows electrons to pass through the gate oxide, even when classically forbidden; therefore, causing unintended state changes, rather than benefiting from predicted scaling behaviors because quantum effects dominate.
