 voltage controlled oscillators
A voltage controlled oscillator or as more commonly known, a vco, is an oscillator where the principal variable or tuning element is a varactor diode.
The voltage controlled oscillator is tuned across its band by a "clean" dc voltage applied to the varactor diode to vary the net capacitance applied to the tuned circuit.
The device is specified to operate over a voltage supply range of 2.7 to 5.5 V. It has a typical current consumption of 15 mA at 3.0 V which makes it attractive for battery operated handheld systems.

 PRACTICAL SYNTHESISER COMPONENTS by Harry Lythall
A conventional VCO uses a varicap diode to vary the capacitance across the LC circuit of the oscillator.
When the control voltage is low then small voltages give a large capacitance change (high deviation level), but if the control voltage is high then the deviation will fall off dramatically.
Now, our voltage to frequency translation will be more constant over the range of 0-5v from the loop filter, so the overall loop gain will become more constant, making the filter damping correct over the whole VCO frequency range.
