A voltage-controlled oscillator is constructed to greatly reduce the number of parts required, its overall size, and manufacturing cost. The voltage-controlled oscillator includes first and second resonance circuits, first and second oscillation circuits, a buffer circuit amplifying the oscillation signals output from the first and second oscillation circuits, and an output-matching circuit. In addition, the voltage-controlled oscillator includes a first switching circuit for controlling the oscillation of the first oscillation circuit and a second switching circuit for controlling the oscillation of the second oscillation circuit. The impedance changing of the matching circuit is simultaneously performed while switching between the switching circuits.
