Which risk increases when a capacitor bank's discharge waveform exhibits ringing?

A)Dielectric breakdown susceptibility grows sharply
B)ESR diminishes, decreasing power delivery
C)Inductance drops, limiting energy transfer
D)Impedance matching becomes inherently unstable

💡 Explanation

Dielectric breakdown risk increases because ringing introduces voltage overshoot exceeding design limits due to transient oscillations via parasitic inductance interacting with capacitance. Therefore, peak voltage stress amplifies rather than diminishing with resistive dampening.
