Which consequence results when integrated circuit vias exceed aspect ratios?

💡 Explanation

Increased electromigration occurs because of higher current densities and temperature at constricted via cross-sections. The mechanism is Joule heating, which enhances atom mobility therefore accelerating failure, rather than affecting capacitive or inductive effects or signal speed.
