a device in which a known delay time is introduced in the transmission of a signal. An acoustic delay line delays a sound wave by circulating it through a liquid or solid medium
Examples of 'delay line' in a sentence
delay line
This circuit makes use of a delay line discriminator configuration, thus not requiring reference oscillator.
