Hello Tom, just to answer the datasheet-question: If I find in the dc-conditions e.g. three different driver strength Voh 2.4V IoH -4mA Voh 2.4V IoH -8mA Voh 2.4V IoH -16mA than I expect three different driver models, but very often I just get one model regards Eckhard -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: ibis-quality-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ibis-quality-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]Im Auftrag von Bob Ross Gesendet: Mittwoch, 21.

Level 0 checks are checked by ibischk4. So any issue or exception can be handled by comments and explainations. The checklist is not perfect, nor does it consider every legal exception case.

The intent was to flag common 50 ns lead-ins as bad form as a result of a full cycle cut and paste, not find the real correlated "minimum". So title might be changed. > > ******************************************************** > > In many cases the buffer that is used for I/O and In are the same cell and > thus could have the same C_comp > > 5.2 LEVEL 1 C_comp not same value for in and io They still could have different values for Input and I/O modes (according to SPICE). So the statement is to consider this and perhaps average the values - or at least document what is captured as C_comp (the Input value might be more meanful in SI analysis). If they are the same, do nothing. > > ************************************************************ > > How do you determine the number of models from a datasheet? > > 5.8 LEVEL 1 not Fewer models than in data sheet > The minimum number of models would correspond to the minimum number of documented specification differences and statements of differences. > ************************************************************ > > Many high power/high frequency packages have back side copper slabs that > must be grounded but are typically not in the pin list. > > 5.12 LEVEL 1 no Package pins missing If it is not documented as a pin, it does not need to be included, even if the supplies are referenced to it. > > *********************************************************** > > Tom Dagostino > Teraspeed Consulting Group LLC > 503-430-1065 > tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > www.teraspeed.com > > -----Original Message----- > From: ibis-quality-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:ibis-quality-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Bob Ross > Sent: Wednesday, July 21, 2004 10:21 AM > To: ibis-quality@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Subject: [ibis-quality] Re: one liners for error checklist > > > Eckhard and All: > > I agree, we need to make the check off consistent with compliance, > not with failure. > > However, the titles need to be cast in a positive manner rather > than in a negative manner.
