Old ARs: Arpad: Review the documentation (annotation) in the macro libraries. - deferred until a demand arises or we have nothing else to do 4) An IC vendor's perspective on package modeling (Mike Mirmak) - discussion on practical needs and IBIS directions 5) BIRD 125 package modeling (Arpad) - questions/comments/discussion? 6) BIRD 150, dependency table (Walter) - questions/comments/discussion? 7) Info, Out, InOut BIRD (Arpad) - latest wording includes "in order to be compliant with this specification, Model_Specific parameters ... must not ...", and omits the word "simulation" so it's meaning doesn't have to be defined - questions/comments/discussion? 8) Eye Mask definition (Arpad) - Rx_Receiver_Sensitivity is the equivalent of the vertical (or voltage) part of an eye mask. It would make sense to define the horizontal (timing) portion of the eye mask also. - questions/comments/discussion? 9) What is the purpose of the specification? Describe the syntax and rules of the syntax, or tell the reader how to make models? - questions/comments/discussion? Tabled topics: ============== - BIRD 144.3 Direct S-parameters under [External Model] (Cadence) - BIRD 145.2 Cascading [Model] with [External Model] (Cadence) - BIRD 121.1, data management parameters (file support) (Walter) Tabled AR-s: ============ Ambrish update BIRD 145 for pad to pin mapping and other clarifications - Need to say what it will not solve - tabled Thanks, Arpad ===================================================================== --------------------------------------------------------------------- IBIS Macro website : http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/macromodel_wip/ IBIS Macro reflector: //www.freelists.org/list/ibis-macro To unsubscribe send an email: To: ibis-macro-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: unsubscribe
