Agenda
======

1) Opens
2) Call for any related patent disclosures
3) Review of ARs:

Ambrish:  Check into adding "other ways" to communicate tap coefficients
          in BIRD 147

Arpad:  Go through the IBIS spec to find all language related to min/max data
        - in progress

Brad:   Check within Cadence whether over-clocking can be discussed

Any other AR-s?



4)  Roll call


5)  Overclocking                                                (Brad)
    - any word from Cadence whether the split model approach can be
      discussed?


6)  BIRD 128.1  Allow AMI_parameters_out to pass AMI_parameters_in
                data on calls to AMI_GetWave                 (Ambrish)
    - discussion


7)  BIRD 147.1 and co-optimization                       (Bob/Ambrish)
    - discussion


8)  How to handle missing min/max data?                        (Arpad)
    - no update today


9)  New Redriver BIRD                                         (Walter)
    - discussion on the new BIRD draft to correct the Redriver flow


10) Ambiguous directionality (BUG150)                        (Mike M.)
    - (not a bug, waiting for discussion)
    - for AMI modeling we have no indication whether the model is
      Input, Output or I/O


Tabled topics:
==============

AR:

Walter:  Collect IC vendor (user) statements regarding their
         packaging needs
         - tabled


11) The IBIS specification does not define what character set
    is allowed in the .ami files.  Some files contain double
    quotes 93h and 94h instead of 22h.  Are these legal?

12) Technical discussion on filter/analog driver (C_comp related
    improvements to spec)

13) BIRD 157  Parameterize [Driver Schedule]                    (Arpad)
   - discussion

14) 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?

15) 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.

17)  Macro models for power delivery


Thanks,

Arpad
