← ScienceWhich risk increases when parasitic capacitance becomes significant within high-frequency integrated circuits?
A)Electromagnetic interference (EMI) emission✓
B)Increased thermal runaway in transistors
C)Dielectric breakdown within components
D)Reduced operational amplifier slew rate
💡 Explanation
Increased susceptibility to electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions occurs, because parasitic capacitance forms unintended coupling paths; this induces spurious currents through inductive components, resulting in signal noise; therefore, EMI is affected, rather than slew rate because capacitances are specifically between signal paths.
