MM,

 

I would prefer that:

 

UI

Unit Interval. 1 UI is the inverse of the data rate frequency, for example
1 UI of a channel

operating at 10 Gb/s is 100 ps. UI parameter values are unitless. The
parameter may take

on either floating point or integer values.

 

Be changed to

 

UI

Unit Interval. 1 UI is the inverse of the data rate frequency, for example
1 UI of a channel

operating at 10 Gb/s is 100 ps. UI parameter values are in units of 1 UI.
If UI is 100ps as in this

example, then if the value of a UI parameter is .01, the used value of the
parameter will be 1ps.

The parameter may take on either floating point or integer values.

 

 

 

I do not know why you added the following:

 

Composite of two Gaussian data sets. Two separate means are defined, but
with a common

sigma for each. Both mean entries and the sigma entry are floating point
values and are

assumed to be in units of UI when declared as Type UI. When declared as
Type Float and

used for a Model_Specific parameter, no units are assumed.
Reserved_Parameters may

define units for Dual-Dirac values declared as Type Float, as detailed
below.

Subject: [ibis-editorial] Rev. 0.135 of draft reformatted IBIS 5.1

 

Per our discussions in the last meeting and in today's IBIS-ATM task
group, please find rev. 0.135 of the draft reformatted IBIS 5.1 document.

 

Major changes include:

-          Fully consistent use of line spacing and fonts

-          (highlighted) Clarifications on units for key AMI Parameters

-          Consistent usage of AMI Parameters, Reserved Parameters and
Model Specific Parameters

-          References to "IBIS-AMI specification" removed

-          New text for Gaussian, DjRj and Dual-Dirac, plus associated TX
and RX jitter Reserved Parameters

-          Additional minor fixes to some terminology

-          Reorganization of Section 10A general and specific rules, plus
additional explanatory text on branches, leaves and root

 

Comments are welcome.
