The capacitance of a varicap diode varies as the reverse voltage to the diode changes. As you increase the reverse voltage, the capacitance decreases. And vice versa.

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.


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
