Which outcome occurs when a resonant tank circuit experiences parasitic capacitance nearing designed resonant frequency?

A)Increased circulating current and heating
B)Decreased output voltage due to shunt impedance
C)Frequency shift of the resonant peak
D)Reduced Q-factor with increased bandwidth

💡 Explanation

When parasitic capacitance increases, the resonant frequency shifts lower because the resonance condition is defined by the inverse relationship between inductance and capacitance. Therefore, a frequency shift results, rather than higher current, lower voltage, or Q reduction, which depend on different impedance mismatches and loss mechanisms.
