Hi Arpad,
Allowing a higher version of AMI file with a lower version of the IBIS file may
produce incorrect results if a parser consistent with the IBIS file version is
used.

Radek,
I think I did have something like that in an earlier
version of this draft, and I was told that any IBIS
file version can be mixed with any AMI file version,
so I took that statement out.
This was in draft 2:
|* The version numbers of .ibs files and AMI models do not have
|* to match. Newer .ibs files may reference older AMI models,
|* but AMI models are not allowed to have newer version numbers
|* than the .ibs files which references them.
So what do we want? AMI ver <= IBIS ver or any mix?
Thanks,
Arpad

Hi Arpad,
Perhaps a better way to phrase the first statement could be:
The value of this parameters shall be a valid IBIS version greater or
equal to 5.1, and shall be not be grater that the IBIS version of the
IBIS file in which the reference to this AMI file is made.

Hello everyone,
Here is an updated draft of the Version BIRD. (This is not posted on
the ATM web site yet).
I made a few minor editorial changes on Bob's suggestion.
There were a few suggestions in the last teleconference, but I am not
completely sure what the decision was for me.
- I thought someone suggested that there was no need o mention
version numbers at all
- I also thought someone suggested that I should remove the
sentence about the absence of this keyword meaning version 5.0.
If these two suggestions are still valid, I could remove the
paragraph:
|* The value of this parameter shall be "5.1" or greater
for
|* AMI models written in compliance with the IBIS Version
5.1 or
|* later specifications. The absence of AMI_version
indicates
|* that the AMI model was written in compliance with the
IBIS
|* Version 5.0 specification.
from the BIRD. I personally don't think it is harmful to keep it there,
but I can live with or without it.
Please let me know what you think. I would like to finalize this in
today's ATM teleconference.
Thanks,
Arpad
