Abstract

The invention consists of secondary type substrate, two grid structures, first doping region and second doping region. The two grid structures are set on the substrate, and each grid structure comprises grid dielectric layer and grid conducting layer. The first doping region is set on the substrate between two grid structures, and the second doping region is set in other substrate in first doping area where the two grid structures are not set. The two grid structures are connected with first electrode or second electrode. The invention includes MOS variable capacitor and resultant variable capacitor structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a variable capacitor (Varactor), in particular to a variable capacitor and a differential variable capacitor (Differential Varactor) whose capacitance and voltage both have a large modulation range. Background technique [0002] In a typical communication system, information signals (for example: TV programs) are modulated (Tune) and placed on a high-frequency carrier to facilitate signal transmission. By virtue of the characteristics of different carrier signals at different frequencies, many information signals are propagated at the same time. Therefore, the receiver in the communication system needs to use a voltage controlled oscillator (Voltage Controlled Oscillator, VCO) to separate the information signal from the carrier. In a VCO, an LC (inductor-capacitor) circuit composed of a variable capacitor and an inductor is included. The oscillation frequency of the VCO can be changed accordingly by virtue of the char...
