Which mechanism causes increased error rates when a strong electromagnetic field interferes with dynamic RAM?

A)Capacitor discharge through induced current
B)Resonance amplification within the silicon
C)Quantum tunneling across junctions
D)Thermal runaway from dielectric heating

💡 Explanation

When a strong EM field is present, induced current in RAM's circuit elements causes accelerated capacitor discharge because of parasitic conductance, leading to bit flips. Therefore capacitor discharge results, rather than resonance, tunneling or thermal runaway which require alternate conditions and mechanisms to be active.
