Abstract

L'invention porte sur un condensateur variable qui comprend un dispositif d'isolation et un condensateur dont la capacité entre électrodes varie en fonction d'un signal appliqué à une borne de commande. Le dispositif d'isolation comprend une unité d'émission, une unité de réception, et une région isolante située entre l'unité d'émission et l'unité de réception. L'unité d'émission émet un signal de réglage, appliqué depuis l'extérieur pour régler la capacité, par l'intermédiaire de la région isolante. L'unité de réception reçoit le signal de réglage transmis par la région isolante à partir de l'unité d'émission, et délivre au condensateur un signal de commande en fonction du signal de réglage reçu.
