Which consequence directly results when parasitic capacitance varies in high frequency crystal oscillator circuits?

A)Spurious frequency mode oscillations appear
B)Internal electrode resistance proportionally decreases
C)Crystal lattice experiences reduced mechanical stress
D)Drive level tolerance substantially increases

💡 Explanation

Spurious oscillations result from uncontrolled resonance. Because distributed capacitance forms unwanted LC circuits, *resonant frequency drifting* occurs; therefore frequency stability degrades, rather than resistance decreasing or drive tolerance improving in the crystal due to altered biasing.
