Ambrish,

 

Good point, I think that that this would have to be modified as well
specifically for Table variables. 

 

An alternative is to require all table rows to have a first field that
would be essentially a row number as we defined for the Jitter and Clock
PDF examples.

Walter,

I was going through your Table BIRD and found this example and the
AMI_parameters_in string on the last page:

 

 

"(fwd (Usage In) (Type Float) 

     (Table 

        (-0.169324  1.40308   0.33024 )

        (-0.738358 -0.293473 -0.06912 )

      )

)

 

The simulator shall include fwd in the AMI_parameters_in strings as:

 

(my_root ...  (fwd (-0.169324  1.40308   0.33024 ) 

                     (-0.738358 -0.293473 -0.06912 )

                )

)"

 

I noticed that there are no row names for the 2 rows in the table.

I was going through your mail from earlier (attached) where you point out
the rules in the IBIS spec (pages 186/187) and say that 

 

"

Note 2. above: 

 

| 2. Parameter name/value pairs are always enclosed in parentheses, with
the

|    value separated from the name by white space.

...

The following example that you propose for multi-row tables violates this
rule:

(name (a11 a12 a13) (b11 b12 b13))

"

 

Is this inconsistent with the rules in the spec? Or am I mistaken? 

 

Thanks,
Ambrish.
