VARACTOR DIODE
A Junction diode which acts as a variable capacitor under changing reverse bias is
known as VARACTOR DIODE
A varactor diode is specially constructed to have high resistance under reverse
bias. Capacitance for varactor diode are Pico farad. (10-12 ) range
CT = ЄA / Wd
CT =Total Capacitance of the junction
Є = Permittivity of the semiconductor material
A = Cross sectional area of the junction
WD= Width of the depletion layer
Curve between Reverse bias voltage Vr across varactor diode and total junction
capacitance Ct and Ct can be changed by changing Vr.
Application for Varactor diode
Use of varactor diode in a tuned circuit. Capacitance of the varactor in parallel with the
inductor.(LC circuit)
