I would agree, if your terminal ordering was intuitive. You'd have to admit that anyone would be hard pressed to come up with an ordering that is more odd than this one.

I generally like the following sort of ordering

stimulus and control pins
stimulus supply rail pins
output pins
output supply rail pins

If there are no specific inputs supply rail pins, then the order would be

stimulus and control  pins
output pins
output supply rail pins

I also would like all ports to be Analog in the declarations, since that's what they are in reality.

Hi Arpad,

In the templates I sent, you can see the node ordering that CDS uses in
our B-elements. I included them as comments right in the model file, so
you can see how it is set up. It would make sense to me to use this same
ordering, as we are providing the templates. It is attached below.

* The terminals in an 8-terminal differential MacroModel are as
follows:
* power = 1
* outp = 2
* ground = 3
* input = 4
* enable = 5
* power_clamp_reference = 6
* ground_clamp_reference = 7
* outn = 8

Subject: [ibis-macro] Node ordering for IBIS buffer building blocks

Hello,

I have a question about the order of the nodes for the IBIS buffer
building blocks in the library.  What should be our convention?

1)  Should we follow the order of nodes as it is done in the
   HSPICE B-elements?
2)  Should we have any other ordering scheme?  For example, have
   the "digital" (i.e. control) nodes first, such as In_D, En_D,
   Rcv_D, and then the analog ports?
3)  Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Arpad
