This is a follow-up to this question Complicated logic circuit drawing with Tikz – two input buffer gate?
Any ideas how can I draw this next element IODELAY2, should I use Resistance symbol?
For me syntax for connecting different symbols is really hard to understand, connecting logical and electrical elements seems impossible …
You cannot have numbers in macro names (at least not without some trickery).
The following works fine:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{circuitikz}
\begin{document}
\newcommand\opampfive[5]
{
\begin{circuitikz}
\draw (0,0) node[op amp] (opamp) {};
\draw (-2,-0.49) to[short, o-] (opamp.+) (-2.2,-0.49) node[anchor=east] {${#1}$};
\draw (-2,0.49) to[short, o-] (opamp.-) (-2.2,0.49) node[anchor=east] {${#2}$};
\draw (-0.08,1.5) to[short, o-] (opamp.up) (-0.08,1.6) node[anchor=south] {${#3}$};
\draw (-0.08,-1.5) to[short, o-] (opamp.down) (-0.08,-1.6) node[anchor=north] {${#5}$};
\draw (1,0) to[short, -o] (2,0) -- (opamp.out) (2.1,0) node[anchor=west] {${#4}$};
\end{circuitikz}
}
\opampfive{1}{2}{3}{4}{5}
\end{document}
The approach I use is to define my coordinates and nodes, then insert the major components (not necessarily in that order). I use relative coordinates for the nodes. The advantage is that you don't have to fiddle around so much with 'trial and error' placement of everything. The code however is a bit longer. The "on grid" option centers the nodes onto grid coordinates. [tikz manual, section 16.5.3 v 2.10 cvs 2011.01 version]
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[american]{circuitikz}
\usetikzlibrary{positioning}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\begin{document}
\begin{circuitikz}[on grid]
\draw (0,1) node {Basic opamp};
% Define coordinates and nodes
\node (vi) {};
\node (a) [right=2 of vi] [label=below:$a$]{};
\node[ground](gnn) [below=1.0 of a,xshift=5mm] {};
\node[ground](gnp) [below=2.5 of vi] {};
\node[op amp](oa) [right=2 of a, yshift=-5mm]{};
\node (vo) [right=0.6 of oa.out]{};
\node[ground](gnd) [below=2 of vo] {};
% connect coordinates, inputs, outputs, and components, i.e. draw the circuit
\draw (gnp) to[V=\SI{1}{V}] (vi);
\draw (vi) to[R=1 \SI{k\ohm}] (oa.-);
\draw (oa.+) -| (gnn) node[ground]{};
\draw (oa.out) to[short] (vo);
\draw (vo) to[R=\SI{1}{k\ohm}] (gnd);
\end{circuitikz}
\end{document}
