EXAMPLES

CREATE TABLE timestamp_formats_example (
  description VARCHAR(30),
  example TIMESTAMP(6)
);
-- The time zone affects the values
SET @@time_zone = '+00:00';

INSERT INTO timestamp_formats_example VALUES
  ('Date without time', '2019-12-30'),
  ('Full year', '2019-12-30 00:00:00'),
  ('Short year', '19-12-30 00:00:00.000'),
  ('Pipe delimiters', '19|2|3 19|00|00.123456'),
  ('Forward slash delimiter', '19/12/30 00/00/00.0');

SET @@time_zone = '-07:00';

INSERT INTO timestamp_formats_example VALUES
  ('Asterisk delimiter', '19*12*30 8*35*00'),
  ('Comma delimiter', '19,2,3 12,34,56.123');

The resulting data would look like this:

SET @@time_zone = '+00:00';

SELECT * FROM timestamp_formats_example;

| Comma delimiter         | 2019-02-03 19:34:56.123000 |
+-------------------------+----------------------------+

The default microsecond precision when unspecified is 0, and you can use that in a cast in order to trim off stored microseconds:
