← ScienceWhich risk notably increases when parasitic capacitance couples asynchronous circuits?
A)Metastability corrupts logic propagation✓
B)Ohmic heating reduces conductivity
C)Capacitive reactance improves EMC
D)Resonance prevents timing violations
💡 Explanation
Metastability occurs because positive feedback amplifies noise, then incorrect output values persist due to parasitic capacitance coupling. Therefore, metastability, rather than beneficial resonance, is the result of this failure mode.
