Aeronautical & Aerospace Engineering : Avionics - Quiz(MCQ)
Which one of the following is false with respect to stray capacitance?
A)
Increases with less capacitance value
B)
Increases when lead wires a are lengthy
C)
Reduces when chip capacitors are used
D)
Reduces with decrease in size of lead wires

Correct Answer :   Increases with less capacitance value


Explanation : The lead wires of capacitors behave as a complex RLC circuit and generate stray capacitance. This can be reduced by shortening the length of the lead wires or using chip capacitors. However, decreasing or increasing the value of capacitance does not affect stray capacitance.
