I am planning on using the attached files for our discussions in the ATM meeting. Please take a few minutes to look at them before the meeting if possible. Don't be scared by the large number of files, most of them are starters only. Just glance over them to get your minds thinking about these topics.

Do we need to fix this? - we will address this when talking about Table Row 22: The syntax for a leaf is: (Row 22 in Task List) <leaf>: ( <parameter name> whitespace <value list> ) So in a Table which is written like this: (-50 -0.1 1e-35), -50 is actually a parameter name, i.e. a string, not a value. -deprecate Table back to List? - we will address this when talking about Table Row 23/24: Fix the two tables to reflect what is in the text - Bob started a BIRD draft which will be finalized as other BIRDs are completed Row 25: Define relationship between Type and Format - Ambrish started a BIRD draft which will be finalized as other BIRDs are completed Row 35: Clarify questions about impulse response - this needs to be discussed Row 37: Usage Out for reserved (jitter) parameters - which function (Init or GetWave) can return these? Row 46/47: Remove certain parameters and keywords - this needs to be discussed Row 51-61: New issues discovered 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
