John Milton Miller (22 June 1882 - 17 May 1962) was a noted American electrical engineer, best known for discovering the Miller effect and inventing fundamental circuits for quartz crystal oscillators. Miller was born in Hanover, Pennsylvania. In 1904 he graduated from Yale University, in 1907 he received an M.A. from Yale, and in 1915 he received his Ph.D. in physics from Yale.

  • John Milton Miller (22 June 1882 - 17 May 1962) was a noted American electrical engineer, best known for discovering the Miller effect and inventing fundamental circuits for quartz crystal oscillators. Miller was born in Hanover, Pennsylvania. In 1904 he graduated from Yale University, in 1907 he received an M.A. from Yale, and in 1915 he received his Ph.D. in physics from Yale. From 1907-1919 he was a physicist with the National Bureau of Standards, then a radio engineer at the United States Navy's Radio Laboratory (1919-1923) in Anacostia, District of Columbia, and subsequently at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL). From 1925-1936 he led radio receiver research at the Atwater Kent Manufacturing Company, Philadelphia, and from 1936-1940 was assistant head of the research laboratory for the RCA Radiotron Company. In 1940 he returned to NRL where he became superintendent of Radio I Division (1945), associate director of research (1951), and scientific research administrator (1952). He married Frances Riley; the couple had seven children — two girls and five boys. Miller was awarded the Distinguished Civilian Service Award in 1945 for "initiation of the development of a new flexible radio-frequency cable urgently needed in radio and radar equipment which solved a desperate material shortage in the United States during World War II," and the IRE Medal of Honor in 1953 for "his pioneering contributions to our basic knowledge of electron tube theory, of radio instruments and measurements, and of crystal controlled oscillators."
  • John Milton Miller, född 22 juni 1882, död 17 maj 1962, var en amerikansk elektroingenjör, mest känd för att ha upptäckt Miller-effekten och uppfinnandet av fundamentala kretsar för kristalloscillatorer (Miller-oscillatorer). Miller föddes i Pennsylvania. 1904 utexaminerades han från Yale University. 1915 blev han doktor i fysik vid Yale. Han arbetade för bland annat National Bureau of Standards, Naval Research Labotratory och RCA Radiotron Company. Miller tilldelades Distinguished Civilian Service Award 1945 för "initieringen av utvecklingen av en ny flexibel RF-kabel som var brådskande behövlig i radio och radarutrustning och som löste en desperat brist i USA under andra världskriget" och han tilldelades även IRE Medal of Honor 1953 för "hans pionjärarbete inom vår grundläggande kunskap om teorin bakom radiorör, radioinstrument och tester och om kristall-kontrollerade oscillatorer.
