← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when thermal runaway degrades the gate?
A)Decreased MOSFET transconductance occurs✓
B)Increased substrate doping observed
C)Lower operational amplifier bandwidth
D)Improved CMOS logic noise margin
💡 Explanation
Decreased transconductance results because drain current increases positive feedback via *channel hot electron injection*. Therefore, MOSFET gain falls rather than improving, because hole mobility isn’t drastically improved.
