Hi, Gurus, A question regarding current mode current stealing circuit simulation confused me for a long time. The simulation results totally different from the measured as well. To understand the cause of discrepancy, I tried to set up two kinds of circuit, one is voltage mode and the other one is current mode. In general, IBIS file describe the v/t curves of I/O cell with test feature. We can easily generate the same v/t curve for these two. However, the Spice simulation indicated the results are totally different if the whole link is under considered. The behavior of current mode spice model is similar with the measured. In my opinion, this phenomenon can be analog to TE and TM mode. Therefore, the refection condition is definitely different even they have owned same v/t curve in IBIS file. My question is, how we overcome this issue if we only use IBIS file for simulation. In general, we can only get IBIS files from vendors. Can any expert on this topic share the experience to me? Thank you in advance. Best regards, Sogo Hsu, Ph. D.
