Which outcome occurs when parasitic capacitance increases in integrated circuits?

A)Signal propagation delay increases✓

B)Power supply noise decreases

C)Maximum clock frequency increases

D)Electromagnetic interference decreases

💡 Explanation

Increased parasitic capacitance causes signal propagation delay because the charging/discharging time of the parasitic capacitors increases; therefore, signals respond slower, rather than noise decreasing or clock frequency increasing, which need faster capacitance response.
