Delay line
Encyclopedia
Delay line may refer to:
- Propagation delayPropagation delayPropagation delay is a technical term that can have a different meaning depending on the context. It can relate to networking, electronics or physics...
, the length of time taken for something to reach its destination - Analog delay lineAnalog delay lineAn analog delay line is a network of electrical components connected in series; where each individual element creates a time difference or phase change between its input signal and its output signal. An example is a bucket-brigade device....
, used to delay a signal - Bi-directional delay lineBi-directional delay lineIn mathematics, a bi-directional delay line is a numerical analysis technique used in computer simulation for solving ordinary differential equations by converting them to hyperbolic equations. In this way an explicit solution scheme is obtained with highly robust numerical properties...
, a numerical analysis technique used in computer simulation for solving ordinary differential equations by converting them to hyperbolic equations - Digital delay lineDigital delay lineA digital delay line is a discrete element in digital filter theory, which allows a signal to be delayed by a number of samples. If the delay is an integer multiple of samples digital delay lines are often implemented as circular buffers...
, a sequential logic element - Delay line memoryDelay line memoryDelay line memory was a form of computer memory used on some of the earliest digital computers. Like many modern forms of electronic computer memory, delay line memory was a refreshable memory, but as opposed to modern random-access memory, delay line memory was serial-access...
