Schematic diagram of variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit

The easiest and most commonly used method is to use the characteristics of varactor diodes to directly generate FM waves. Its principle circuit is shown in Figure 6-1.

The varactor diode Cj is connected to both ends of the LCN circuit through the coupling capacitor C1 to form a part of the total capacitance of the oscillation circuit. Therefore, the total capacitance C of the oscillating circuit is:
C = CN + Cj (6-3)
The oscillation frequency is:

The reverse bias applied to the varactor diode is:
VR = VQ (DC reverse bias) + Ï… (modulated voltage) + Ï… (high frequency oscillation, can be ignored)
The varactor diode is made of the junction capacitance of the PN junction, and exhibits a certain junction capacitance (barrier capacitance) under the action of the reverse bias voltage, and this junction capacitance can sensitively change within a certain range with the reverse bias voltage, and its relationship Weigh
Cj ~ Ï…R curve, as shown in Figure 6-2.
It can be seen from the figure: when the modulation voltage is not added, the junction capacitance corresponding to the DC reverse bias VQ (called VO in the textbook) is
CjΩ (called CO in the textbook). When the reverse bias increases, Cj decreases; when the reverse bias decreases, Cj increases, and its change has a certain nonlinearity. When the modulation voltage is small, it is approximately the linear segment of the Cj ~ vR curve. Linear change, when the modulation voltage is large, the nonlinearity of the curve cannot be ignored, it will give a certain nonlinear distortion to the frequency modulation band.
Let's go back to Figure 6-1 again, and set the modulation voltage to be very small, working in the linear segment of the Cj ~ Ï…R curve, ignoring the effect of high-frequency voltage on the varactor diode.
Let υR = VQ + VQ cosΩt (6-5)
It can be seen from Figure 6-2 (c): the capacitance of the varactor diode changes with Ï…R.
That is: Cj = CjQ — CmcosΩt (6-6)
According to formula (3), the total capacitance of the oscillation circuit at this time is C ′ = CN + Cj = CN + CjQ — CmcosΩt
