The GC15000 series of frequency-linear tuning varactors are used in VCO's, filters, amplifiers and modulators for wide band tuning through Ku band. The frequency linear characteristics allow over one octave linear tuning in suitable circuits, with no need for external linearization. The combination of high Q and low surface noise results in low FM noise in VCO applications. They are particularly useful in modulated VCO's because of their constant sensitivity, and high modulation rate capability.
