Abstract

Disclosed is a tunable capacitor. The tunable capacitor according to a first embodiment of the present invention includes: a first capacitor; and a switching transistor which switches on/off the connection of the first capacitor between the first terminal and the second terminal, wherein an on/off operation of the switching transistor is performed by a high signal H and a low signal L. The tunable capacitor according to a second embodiment of the present invention includes: a first capacitor; and a switching transistor which switches on/off the connection of the first capacitor between the first terminal and the second terminal, wherein an on/off operation of the switching transistor is performed by a high signal H and a low signal L, and wherein the tunable capacitor is integrated on one semiconductor die or on one module.
