ibis model support

Open mxdsgnl opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Hello - I am coming to SignalIntegrity from MG HyperLynx. I was hoping to test drive with a LVPECL IBIS model. I searched around and couldn't find a single mention of IBIS in the docs.

Am I missing something obvious here? Is it possible to extract the driver impedance model from ibis to s-parameters and excite it with an ideal source?

Please advise if there is a forum or other place better suited for this type of question.

Thanks! Nick

Hello.

About your question, you can extract driver impedance from IBIS model. One method presented here by Bert Simonovich : https://blog.lamsimenterprises.com/2010/12/22/drivers-output-impedance-from-ibis/

Indeed, it could be a big enhancement if signalintegrity software could support IBIS model. I use this tool often and each time I use it, I think this is a lack.

Nevertheless, I know this is a free tool and thanks a lot to the author.
