Hi All, I am puzzled about why termination is not required if trace length is less than critical length. I read like if a driver encounters a reflected signal when it is rising(driving) , its able to absorb reflection.Is it so? Or is the situation like ..the reflections will be there..but the Setup condition can be met..so we need not worry..?? Can anyone please throw some light on this..
