The driver should be matched to impedance. The length of the line does not
matter. If your driver can drive 50 Ohm 3 inch line - it will drive 50 inch
line.

Hi folks,

I have got a basic problem to choose a PAD for GMII interface.

The system requires a PAD which could drive a 5 pF loading in 
1ns rise time.

If I can choose a PAD which could drive a 3-inches long, 50 ohms 
transmission line and meet spec. .
What if I use the same pad to drive a 15-inches long, 50 ohms 
transmission line? The lump capacitance may increase to be 5 times of 
previous case. Will it " slow down " the rise time of the PAD ?

Thanks,
