[SI-LIST] Re: Is there any relationship between IBIS simulation accuracy and frequency?

It is probably true that the earliest generation IBIS models, with a lumped
R-L-C package model and no coupling, may deviate from reality more as one
goes higher in frequency.  But IBIS has come a long way since then.

A well prepared IBIS model, created with attention paid to the actual
frequencies at which the device will be used, and then used in a simulator
that is aware of all the features in that model, could be very accurate at
those higher frequencies.  The accuracy of any model increases the closer it
is used to the frequencies at which the model (or IBIS data sheet, in this
case) was created.

Models created by people who don't really know modeling, who do it just
because their bosses told them they had to get an IBIS model on their
website, might be inaccurate at DC as well as higher frequencies.
