Hi Vighnesh, Switch delay and settle delay are two ways of quantifying transition times. This next is from an earlier discussion on SI-LIST, I have added MIN & MAX as I thought appropriate. "Switch delay for rise edge is measured at first Vil (MAX) crossing and for falling edge it is measured first crossing at Vih (MIN). Settle delay for rise edge is measured at the final Vih (MIN) crossing and for falling edge it is measured at the final Vil (MAX) crossing." You can easily figure out how transition delays will factor into an overall timing budget and the impact on setup-hold times. Refer to http://www.qsl.net/wb6tpu/si-list/0214.html and //www.freelists.org/archives/si-list/02-2004/msg00119.html for more discussion on this.
