← ScienceWhich risk increases when parasitic capacitance is present in high-frequency amplifiers?
A)Thermal runaway instability occurs.
B)Oscillation instability is probable.✓
C)Increased power supply ripple.
D)Collector current saturation results.
💡 Explanation
Parasitic capacitance introduces unintended feedback paths, therefore the gain at certain frequencies may become very high promoting self-oscillation via positive feedback, rather than thermal runaway, because bias parameters shift.
