← ScienceWhich disruption results when parasitic capacitance couples gate signals in high-speed CMOS?
A)Unintended transistor firing ('glitching')✓
B)Increased static power dissipation
C)Signal rise/fall time improvement
D)Reduced electromagnetic interference (EMI)
💡 Explanation
Unintended transistor firing occurs because capacitive coupling implements unwanted charging/discharging paths, leading to spurious state changes. Therefore, 'glitching' rises because it affects undesired activation, rather than quiescent power losses or mitigated emissions.
