Which risk increases when inductive kickback exceeds diode limits?

A)Transistor junction breakdown occurs
B)Capacitor ripple current increases
C)EMC shielding becomes ineffective
D)Core saturation reduces inductance

💡 Explanation

Transistor junction breakdown occurs because exceeding a reverse-biased diode's voltage enhances the electric fields accelerating carriers across the depletion region, initiating Avalanche breakdown; therefore, a transistor fails rather than another component given rapid voltage increase and exceeding design parameters.
