Call for opens and IBIS related patent disclosures:
- None
AR Review:
- None
New items:
IBISCHK extension to test executables:
- Michael M: We should check for things like zero C_comp, no I-V current.
- This is a sign of an absent analog model.
- Some DLLs incorrectly have an "analog model" embedded in them.
- Mike L: Agree
- Michael M: Should we test Max_Aggressors? The number might be billions.
- Mike L: We could have our own limit, with an option to not enforce it.
- Michael M: What would be the developer cost for minimal testing?
- Mike L: It might be less work for Atul if the test program is separate.
- Bob: We would want sample DLL contributions for testing.
- Michael M: Can we test to see if the model responds to parameter like
Init_Returns_Impulse?
- Mike L: The return can be diffed against the original to see if the wave is
modified.
- Michael M: Will this add too much and delay the parser?
- Mike L: People will want the basic parser first, this might be a second
release.
- Bob: I would favor making this a second project.
- Mike L: Would the front end logic be in IBISCHK or in the other program?
- Either one could set up the tests and check results.
- Bob: There should be an option to not run the DLL check.
- We decided to meet weekly while this matter is under discussion.
- The next steps are to make a list of requirements, refine that, then file an
IBISCHK bug.
- Bob: We also need to test the new AMI_Resolve() function.
- Michael M: The parser is dumb, it just gives warnings with no user
interpretation.
- The test kits will produce data that must be looked at by someone.
- Mike L: We should have it compare against golden data.
Meeting ended at 12:18 Eastern Time.
