Continuous tunable LC resonator using a FET as a varactor |
摘要 |
A varactor includes a field effect transistor (FET) integrated with at least a portion of a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), in which a back gate of the FET shares an electrical connection with a base of the BJT, and in which a reverse voltage applied to the back gate of the FET creates a continuously variable capacitance in a channel of the FET. |

1. A varactor, comprising:
a bipolar junction transistor (BJT) including a base and an emitter; and a field effect transistor (FET) integrated with at least a portion of the BJT, in which a back gate of the FET shares an electrical connection with the base of the BJT, and in which a reverse voltage applied to the back gate of the FET creates a continuously variable capacitance in a channel of the FET formed at least partially in an emitter layer of the BJT. |
