A voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), suitable for use in a frequency shift keying (FSK) system. The VCO device comprises a switching varactor unit, having a first terminal and a second terminal, wherein the switching varactor unit produces a capacitance, according to a frequency-selection voltage. A VCO core has a first output terminal, a second output terminal complementary to the first output terminal, and an input terminal. Wherein, the switching varactor unit is coupled in parallel with the VCO core at the first output terminal and the second output terminal to produce a capacitance effect with respect to the capacitance, so as to adjust a frequency constant {square root over (LC)} of the VCO core.
