Mike,
 
AMI is kind of unrelated to the package model.  AMI is
an algorithmic model which uses a channel response and
processes it with statistical algorithms.
 
The reason I said "kind of" is because for generating a
channel response, you have to have a full description of
the channel, including the Tx, Tx_pkg, T-lines (connectors
vias, etc), Rx_pkg, Rx.  This is what we call the analog
simulation which you need to do once to generate a 
channel response, but this is usually an independent 
simulation step which precedes the AMI "simulations".

Subject: [ibis-macro] Question on package models



Hi, 
How does the IBIS package model (either embedded or stand alone) work
with a AMI based link? Is it still expected to provide RLC data coupled
and/or uncoupled? I do not think this is sufficient to correctly model
the package portion of the channel for use with an AMI block/high speed
SERDES.
