← TechnologyWhich risk increases when rapid inductor discharge occurs across a reverse-biased diode?
A)Excessive reverse recovery current✓
B)Increased thermal runaway threshold
C)Reduced forward voltage drop
D)Decreased series resistance losses
💡 Explanation
Excessive reverse recovery current is likely because of inductive kickback. The reverse recovery mechanism causes high current spikes as the diode attempts to switch off rapidly, therefore inducing large voltages, rather than a managed voltage change affecting thermal threshold.
