Ultrasonic delay lines are used to delay electrical signals for a certain period of time, and the speed of sound waves is approximately equal to that of electromagnetic waves.
Focusing on the fact that it is 1/100,000th, we convert electrical signals into ultrasonic signals and convert them from several tens of microseconds to several tens of microseconds.
After obtaining a delay time of 100 μsec, it is converted back into an electrical signal.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, A, B, and C. In FIG. 2, reference numeral 4 denotes an ultrasonic delay line, which normally has four terminals, but only the two input terminals are used, and the secondary reflection that returns to this input terminal is utilized. That is, the ultrasonic delay line 4 normally provides a predetermined delay time of 1τ from the output end when a signal is applied to the input end, but when configured as in the present invention, a delay of 2τ is obtained at the input end. A reflected wave voltage E(2τ) with time appears. A buffer amplifier 5 such as an emitter follower is connected to the input end of the ultrasonic delay line 4, and the amplification factor of this amplifier 5 is 1. Lines 6 and 7 are taken out from the input and output sides of the buffer amplifier 5, and are designed to have opposite phases. The output of this circuit is taken out through a line 8 where the lines 6 and 7 are joined.

Next, the operation of the circuit of the present invention will be explained.
Now, when a signal voltage E 1 is applied to the circuit of the present invention, a voltage -E 1 appears on line 6 as shown in waveform A in FIG. 3A. On the other hand, since the amplification factor of the buffer amplifier 5 is 1, the voltage at the input end of the ultrasonic delay line 4, that is, the voltage appearing on the line 7, has a waveform B of E1 and an ultrasonic delay waveform, as shown in FIG. This is the waveform c of the secondary unnecessary reflected voltage E(2τ) reflected at the input end of the line 4. Then, on output line 8, -E 1 of waveform A and waveform B
E1 cancel each other out, and only E(2τ) of waveform C, that is, a delayed signal, is obtained as shown in FIG. 3C.
