Abstract
A circuit arrangement having a plurality of variable capacitance elements such as varactors is described, the varactors having associated electronic control means which controls the capacitance of the variable capacitance elements over a control range. The control range is such that for any particular variable capacitance element a complete variation from a lowest to a highest capacitance is obtained from only a portion of the control range.
