Which risk is amplified when increasing frequency on a printed circuit board beyond material frequency limits?

💡 Explanation

When frequency increases significantly on PCBs, the dielectric material's polarization lags behind the rapidly changing electric field leading to increased dielectric losses due to the inability of dipoles to align quickly enough. Increased dielectric losses amplified, rather than migration, cooling or skin effect, which have related but distinct causes.
