Which outcome occurs when a poorly grounded signal cable connects a high-frequency amplifier IC to a capacitive load?

💡 Explanation

Amplifier oscillation occurs because unwanted inductive cable reactance forms a parasitic LC circuit via parasitic capacitance. Consequently, positive feedback excites the **Barkhausen criterion**, therefore oscillation; rather than predictable amplification if grounding routes were adequate.
