I am trying to understand DDR3 slew rate derating. Let us say we are working with a differential DQS with a fixed slew rate of 2.0 V/ns. When the DQ slew rate is 1.5 V/ns the setup time is 59 ps. When the DQ slew rate increases to 2.0 V/ns, the setup time increases to 88 ps. I thought the setup time would go down with a faster signal. ------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from si-list: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field or to administer your membership from a web page, go to: //www.freelists.org/webpage/si-list For help: si-list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'help' in the Subject field List technical documents are available at: http://www.si-list.net List archives are viewable at: //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list Old (prior to June 6, 2001) list archives are viewable at: http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu
