A voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is used in an application where we need an oscillator to provide a signal, but we require that oscillator to be able to shift frequency very rapidly. We can build circuits that change voltage very rapidly, and these can be use to shift the frequency of the VCO just a quickly. One application of the VCO is in devices to which we wish to apply automatic fine tuning (AFT). We often see receivers that have AFT circuits to optimize reception.

What is the output of the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) when a phase locked loop (PLL) circuit contains a VCO?
The output of the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) in a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit is a periodic waveform, typically a sine or square wave, whose frequency is controlled by the input voltage. This voltage is derived from the phase comparator in the PLL, which adjusts the VCO frequency to match the frequency of a reference signal. As the PLL locks onto the reference signal, the VCO output frequency stabilizes, ensuring that it is phase-locked with the reference. This output can be used for various applications, including frequency synthesis and modulation.

Is Avalanche a vcv?
No, Avalanche is not a VCV (voltage-controlled oscillator). Avalanche refers to a type of noise created in semiconductor devices due to the impact ionization of carriers.
State four types of LC oscillators?
Four types of LC oscillators include voltage controlled oscillators, drift control oscillators, crystal oscillators, and tuned circuit oscillators. A tuned circuit oscillator is the most common type of oscillator.
What are the steps of frequency modulation?
1. Start with an oscillator that is controlled by voltage. VCO.2. Use an audio amplifier with limiting3. Apply audio signal to VCO control, usually via varicap diode.The oscillator will change frequency in time with the audio signal.
What is controlled voltage?
RPS is only the voltage& power controlled device. it can only used for set the input for our wish A device which can change its output according to the voltage supplied to it is called a voltage controlled device.ex. a voltage controlled current source,or a field effect transistor. In a voltage controlled current source the output current changes as the voltage supplied to it changes.
How are FM signal generated?
There are several methods for generating FM signals but they all basically involve an oscillator with an electrically adjustable frequency. This type of oscillator uses an input voltage to affect the frequency of its output. For example, when the applied voltage increases, the oscillator output frequency increases and when the applied voltage decreases, the oscillator output frequency decreases as well. If no voltage is applied to the oscillator its output will be a signal at its centre frequency. The amount of frequency variations is deviated around the oscillators' centre frequency.
Why PLL better than VCO?
A PLL is different than a VCO. Each has its own use. Actually a PLL (Phase Locked Loop) contains a VCO (Voltage controlled oscillator). A VCO is an oscillator whose frequency is related to an input voltage. You can use it when you need a varying frequency that is controlled by a varying voltage. But it is not great at outputting a consistant exact voltage because it is very sensitive to its environment (e.g. temperature). A PLL will "lock" its output frequency to some input frequency. So it can oscillate at a frequency that is controlled by an input oscillator. Not too useful if the output frequency is the same as the input. But the output frequency can be divided before it is compared to the input. This allows the output frequency to be higher (some multiple of) the input frequency. Once a PLL is "locked on" to an input frequency it can be very stable.
