Guys;

Has any one were able to find the "pdf" of the paper in web? I did sear=
ch
and I can only find the
Designcon 2009 listing of papers presented not the contents of paper. I=
f
anyone has found it
and can share it will be of great help. Thanks in advance.

Regards;

Don Pakbaz

Thanks Steve, Rohit & everyone for clearing my doubt.
So if I understood it right, if low bit rate signal is data signal then=

chances of SI problem will be minimal but if it's strobe or reset signa=
l
then we must analyse it for SI problem.

As a follow-up question...I would like to know how to handle SI problem=
 in
low bit rate signals like strobe or reset signal.  do we need to take s=
ome
special precaution or just need to have controlled impedance & resistiv=
e
termination ? I don't think that I have ever seen resistive termination=
  in
reset/strobe signal.
