I hope I understood your question correctly; I've got to say: because it's impossible to build a clock with rise time = 0.
So we have to consider the rise time effect on our design.
Hello,
Rise time means 0 to 1 transition, now question is how 0 to 1 transition occurs,for occurring,0 to 1 transition,these should pass through some logic...if is pass through some logic,thn it is not possible to do it with 0ns delay...so we need to consider rise time..and same for fall time..
