["Lynne D. Green" <lgreen22@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello, Yan Hang,

IBIS and SPICE do not have the same Time=0 reference, due to the way SI
tools trigger I/O inputs.  This means that there is a time offset between
the two waveforms.

This offset can be corrected for by simulating the load [Vmeas, Rref, Cref].
This delay offset can then be used to adjust the delay in other simulations.
Many SI tools have automated this process.

A good paper on this is http://pcdandm.com/cms/content/view/2800/95/.  There
is also a HyperLynx Application Note, referenced in that paper.

Best regards,
Lynne

Hspice delays should be accurate and in general more than ibis. Better to
use ibis only for SI sims and not for timing.

Hi All,
Now I do some board timing simulations . I got the hspice = model and ibis
model for same buffer. Then I set a test fixture(Ex.
Cref=3D15pf,Rref=3D1E6,Vref=3D3.3V),I contrast the simulation result of =
buffer dealy using hspice model and ibis model. I found there is a little
big diffrence between them.
So when translate hspice model to ibis model,how to consider about the
buffer deley issue? =20 Should I trust the buffer delay value from ibis
model = simulation?

Best Regards.
