Where is the permitivity of the semiconductor
materials, A the p-n junction area and Wd the
depletion width.

K
CT =
(VT + VR)n
Where
K = constant determined by the semiconductor material
and construction technique
VT = knee potential
VR = magnitude of the applied reverse-bias potential
n = ½ for alloy junctions and ½ for
diffused junction
In terms of the capacitance at the zero-bias
condition C(0), the capacitance as a function
of VR.
C(0)
CT(VR) =
(1 + |VR/VT|)n
The symbols most commonly used for the varactor
diode and a first approximation for its equivalent
circuit in the reverse-bias region.
CT = f (VR)
Rs RR 1MΩ LS
(0.1 - 12Ω) (1 – 5nH)
This is an Example of Varactor Diode
