Delay symbol

[[email protected]]

Hey dudes'n'dudettes

Is there a standard schematic symbol for a digital delay element? I'm
using just a regular buffer triangle with the delay written in it. But
that might be unclear, maybe it means the rise time you know?

A delay line is a sausage with wires on either end and a vertical bar
off-center. That should do.

We created some delay lines inside Xilinx chips, to make some
one-shots, but we had to draw them as plain boxes.

Yeah, but you probably won't like it, dude or dudette:
