Sorry, I made a cut and paste error... What I meant to say was this: This is mathematically inconsistent... Based on min <= typ <= max, min and max is allowed to be equal, but based on min < max they must never be equal. Which is it?

You added the "=" and "min < max" correct? This is mathematically inconsistent... Based on min <= typ <= max min and max is allowed to be equal, but based on min <= typ <= max they must never be equal. Which is it?

This is row #15 in the Task List spreadsheet: http://www.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/macromodel_wip/archive/20100831/arpadmurany i/IBISv5.0%20AMI%20specification%20BIRD%20task%20list/IBIS50AMI_TaskList _2010_08_31.pdf I hope to get feedback on this on or before the next ATM teleconference so we can get this right.
