Of Miles and Oscillators
Reflections on Miles A. Copeland
Sorin P. Voinigescu

hen I started writing this article, I realized that I have never
watched Miles Copeland give a lecture to a class or a technical presentation at a conference. Also, I never experienced
Miles as a graduate student supervisor or as a professor. On
the contrary, this article is about the Miles I know best-Miles
the consultant, the engineer, the friend for over 21 years. During most of those
years, especially in his retirement, Miles has been meticulously investigating the
large signal and phase noise operation and design of the Colpitts oscillator whose
differential IC version he introduced for the first time with his graduate student
