← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when overheating causes excessive electron-hole pairs in a MOSFET?
A)Increased channel current leakage✓
B)Enhanced gate oxide breakdown
C)Improved switching characteristics
D)Reduced threshold voltage stability
💡 Explanation
Increased electron-hole pairs lead to worsened drain-source cutoff, because electron-hole recombination induces substantial sub-threshold conduction; therefore, the channel leakage current increases; rather than improving performance, the leakage compromises the off-state dynamics.
