Walter: Send package issues outline and example to email list - ??? Arpad: Make a BIRD163 version of Walter's example - in progress Any other AR-s? 4) Roll call 5) BIRD 147 Back-channel support (Ambrish/Scott Huss) - update 6) BIRD 163/164/165 (Arpad) - show Randy's example in the syntax of these BIRDs 7) Discuss IBIS component vs. EBD/EMD direction (All) 8) BIRD 128 Allow AMI_parameters_out to pass AMI_parameters_in data on calls to AMI_GetWave (Walter) - update, questions, comments? Tabled topics: ============== AR: Walter: Collect IC vendor (user) statements regarding their packaging needs - tabled 9) Ambiguous directionality (BUG150) (not a bug, waiting for discussion) - for AMI modeling we have no indication whether the model is Input, Output or I/O 10) In the package matrix, diagonals shouldn't be allowed to have negative values (BUG151) (enhancement for parser and specification) 11) Technical discussion on filter/analog driver (C_comp related improvements to spec) 12) BIRD 157 Parameterize [Driver Schedule] (Arpad) - discussion 13) Info, Out, InOut BIRD (Arpad) - latest wording includes "in order to be compliant with this specification, Model_Specific parameters ... must not ...", and omits the word "simulation" so it's meaning doesn't have to be defined - questions/comments/discussion? 14) DLL error trapping and return codes (Greg Edlund) - address the nasty condition where the DLL and tool crash without a trace. The EDA vendor says, "I can't help you because I can't see inside the model." The model vendor says, "I can't help you because I don't own that tool." The user is left with a non-functional model. 15) Overclocking 16) Macro models for power delivery Thanks, Arpad ===================================================================== --------------------------------------------------------------------- IBIS Macro website : http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/macromodel_wip/ IBIS Macro reflector: //www.freelists.org/list/ibis-macro To unsubscribe send an email: To: ibis-macro-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: unsubscribe
