Driver resistance varies from a minimum at the start of a switching edge when the voltage difference between the driver output and the transmission line input is at a maximum to a maximum effective resistance at the end of the switching edge when the voltage difference is at its minimum. To derive approximate driver resistance you want to take deltaV/deltaI near the center switching voltage. Steve.
