Which risk increases when an amplifier's group delay variation exceeds 10 ns across the bandwidth?

💡 Explanation

Signal pulse broadens significantly because increased group delay variation causes different frequency components to propagate at varying speeds via dispersion; therefore the pulse broadens, rather than saturation increasing or thermal runaway, which have different causes.
