So what should be rule of thumb? Plz reply.

Thanks & regards,

Greetings Manish



There is indeed a relationship between the Tpd and the Tr, but in some
IO=20
standards, or IO cells it might be minute and negligible.

Your question is very generic and since you did not point out a specific

standard or technology I will give you my generic analogy -



The Tr defines the change of voltage per time of the input signal to an
IO=20
cell. As all IO cells build of transistors, either CMOS or TTL, they are

bound to the basic rules of - once you pass a specific threshold, you
bias=20
the junction in a way that it will either be active or saturated (I
simplify=20
it of course)



So when the input to an IO cell changes from low to high (i.e. Tr) the=20
various transistors' biasing will change.

So simply putting it, the rate of change (Tr) will dictate how fast they

will move from saturation to active for instance, and through the linear

stage of the Tr there will be a linear influence on those transistors.



Hope it helps



Gil
