In Reply to: Higher slew rates can make interface jitter worse posted by slider on June 2, 2012 at 12:54:21:
Impedances need to be matched throughout the interface. If the driver output, cable, connector, and receiver termination impedances (not to mention the power supply decoupling) are not correct, then there's little that simply increasing slew rate can do to improve the situation. It may make things worse, as you suggest. Our discussion of reducing interface jitter by increasing driver slew rate assumes that the related interface parameters have been properly addressed.
