Rise and fall times are how long it takes the light output to go from 10% to 90% and vice versa. The desired waveform should closely resemble a square wave as much as possible. The faster the time, the better the driver will perform. Keep in mind that the higher the rise time, the less margin one will have for the enable/delay. The fall time should be the same or better than the rise time. Potential issues from not having a fast rise times are ramp smoothness, PWM artifacts, CCA accuracy and dither performance.
