I looked at the model.  All VT curves look normal.  What I did notice was
the end point errors all went away for the rising waveforms with load to
ground when the load resistor went to 67 Ohms.  It looks like there could
have been a setup error.

Is the rising waveform actually settling? The number one reason for DC/AC
endpoints mismatch is that the simulation duration was not long enough for
the waveform to flatten out to the final steady-state value.

Hi:
I am generating an IBIS model from the Spice netlists
of I/O buffers available to me. I am using the s2ibis2
method for generation of the IBIS model.
The curves generated look fine. But, the IBISCHK3
parser flags the DC/AC endpoints mismatch error. From
the looks of it, it is obvious that the rising
waveform is settling to a value higher than the DC
endpoint. But, I am trying to figure out why.

Could this be because of the buffer design? Or is this
merely an accuracy issue of the tool used (i.e.,
s2ibis2)?

Your inputs would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
-Anuj.
