Resonant frequency of a circuit is proportional to sq rt (L x C). A varactor diode, when suitably voltage biased, looks like a capacitor (C). Varying the bias varies the capacitor and thus the resonant frequency .

Is crystal oscillator used in Varactor diode modulator?
YES
What is verector diode in electronics?
I think you you are asking about varactor diode. varactor means variable capacitor. varactor diode is a p-n junction diode which provide a capacitance across it subjected to applied forward and reverse bias. means it provide variable capacitance which depends on the applied reverse voltage(mostly varactor diode works on reverse voltage).They are also known as varicap
Which diode is used in frequency tuning application?
The varactor diode is used in frequency tuning applications. Its effective capacitance is a function of the reverse bias voltage across it.
In a diode modulator the negative half of the am wave is supplied by the?
tuned circuit
How varactor diode used as parametric amplifier?
A varactor diode is most commonly used as the variable reactor. The varactor is a semiconductor pnjunction diode, and its junction capacitance is varied by the application of a steady signal from a local microwave oscillator, called the pump. Amplification of weak signal waves occurs through a nonlinear modulation or signal-mixing process which produces additional signal waves at other frequencies. This process may provide negative-resistance amplification for the applied signal wave and increased power in one or more of the new frequencies which are generated.

YES
What is a diode modulator?
A diode modulator is a type of AM modulator constructed using diodes. One type of diode modulator is the ring modulator shown in the image.

How is balanced modulator different from diode bridge modulator?
A diode bridge modulator is one kind of balanced modulator.
Who invented varactor diode?
invented by Arthur Uhlir and A. Bakanowski
What are the advantage and disadvantages of the monolithic modulator in comparison with diode modulator?
hello
Why balanced modulator is called balanced modulator?
the output from a balanced modulator consists of modulating freq also. this can be eliminated in a diode modulator by adding two more diodes, making a diode ring. therefore called ring modulator

What diode is used as voltage controlled capacitor?
It is called a varactor or a varicap diode. Its capacitance varies nonlinearly with the reverse voltage applied to its terminals.
Explain the use of a varactor diode in a parallel resonance circuit?
Short answer: By using a varactor diode as the capacitance in a parallel resonant ckt, by changing the reverse bias voltage you change the value of capacitance which in turn changes the resonant frequency. This makes a tuneable resonant ckt.
Which diode is used in frequency tuning application?
The varactor diode is used in frequency tuning applications. Its effective capacitance is a function of the reverse bias voltage across it.
