All, I have put this in outline form for now. I want to make sure I have all the points highlighted prior to formatting into agreed upon template. Barry Component Section * Level 0 * Package parasitics * Must be defined on a component * Optional on pins, but if not defined must use NA NA NA * Parasitics must be reasonable L <10nF, C <20pF, R <1 ohm * External Package model * Physical/Logical/Model Pin Mapping * Models must exist in file or refer to Model Selector * Pin names should not exceed 20 characters (to change?) * No Connects represented with NC * Power pins must be indicated POWER * Gnd pins must be indicated GND * Special Pins (e.g. analog) to be represented by NC with note * Diff pin sections * If defined, physical pins must exist * Vdiff must be defined and reasonable * Skew data must be defined and reasonable * Same models must exist on both pins of a diff pair * Model Selector * All models must be valid * First should be default * Level 1 * Package parasitics * Package parasitics are validated against data sheet * Physical/Logical/Model Pin Mapping * Mapping is validated to be complete and correct * Power, Gnd, NC pins validated * All pins defined * Model Selector * First model confirmed to be default VT Curves/Ramp Data * Level 0 * Should have four VT curves * 50 Ohm Pullup (Pullup Voltage = Voltage) * Rising * Falling * 50 Ohm Pulldown * Rising * Falling * Noted Exceptions * TBD * VT Curves and Ramp should be consistent * VT Curves must be monotonic * VT Should be consistent with IV curves * Ramp data should not be zero * No negative ramp values * Level 1 * Ramp should be measured from 20-80% of swing * Ramp typ/min/max order verified * VT Curves must be visually inspected * Should be well behaved with continuous second derivative * VT point density should be increased in areas with non-zero second derivative * Excess VT points in beginning and end of VT curves should be removed * Relative position between all curves should be maintained * Final DC value must be achieved * Simulations run and confirmed? New section? Model Limitations * Level 0 * Identification of any known limitations in model * Examples include PVT * Keywords that may be placeholders(such as Vih/Vih) * LVDS restrictions * etc --------------------------------------------------------------------- IBIS Quality website: http://www.sisoft.com/ibis-quality IBIS Quality archives: //www.freelists.org/archives/ibis-quality To unsubscribe send an email: To: ibis-quality-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: unsubscribe
