Which risk increases when a power MOSFET operating near its rated voltage experiences a sudden inductive load disconnection?

💡 Explanation

Elevated drain-source avalanche breakdown occurs because the voltage rises sharply, exceeding the MOSFET's breakdown voltage; this is due to inductive kickback. Therefore, avalanche breakdown is the primary risk, rather than the gate oxide or hot carrier effects at normal voltages/currents.
