Guys,

Please take a little time to read Vladimir's response on this thread.
It ***CAN*** be done (if done correctly)!

The only problem is that it puts more burden on the model maker who
essentially is going to start writing an analog simulator of some
sort in the DLL.

We would also need to revisit the AMI flow a little bit, but that's
just detail.

Thanks,

Arpad

... and the insertion loss.

... and if the network characterization of the channel is invalid, so is 
everything else.

If the Analog Buffer is inside the DLL, then the analog return loss of the 
buffer is not correctly handled in the impulse response characterization of the 
channel.

?

Why not? As long as the dll is isolated from the analog front end , the dll 
itself can be modeled any way you want

What nasty things are likely to happen if someone puts the analog buffer model 
inside the DLL?  At the very least, the impulse response will be incorrect.

Are there any circumstances under which this can work correctly?
