Eric, I believe SiSoft support is "out of the Box" and they do have a quite a few models available (looking at their internal customer site). I know a number of CAD tool vendors are presenting at DesignCon and would recommend contacting them directly for Demo's.

However, to date I have only seen Sigrity's channel designer support AMI models "out of the box", and can generate the BER curves, and statistical eye's. In the case of Mentor, it looks like they only have special support for the Xilinx models embedded within the kit (? is this correrct ?). I assume this means Mentor does not yet have a tool where you can take any vendors AMI model and just drop into a schematic unless you work with them to develop a kit similar to Xilinx. Does anyone know if/how Mentor (Hyperlynx GHz), Cadence (Signal Explorer), and SiSoft (Quantum Channel Designer) support out of the box AMI models?
