Which consequence results when a filter capacitor's series resistance increases in a switched-mode power supply?

💡 Explanation

Increased equivalent series resistance (ESR) causes greater voltage drop across the capacitor during charge/discharge cycles because the voltage drop increases with resistance; therefore, the output experiences higher ripple, rather than improvements in transient response or reduction in EMI.
