On my favorite topic, which is bad IBIS models, here is an (edited to
protect the innocent) email I received from someone at a large
corporation we buy complex VLSI chips from:
Here's the [Part Number] model you requested. I had quite a few
problems creating it since it was designed using a program other
than SPICE. Here at [Large Corp], we do not have any software that
allows us to simulate any IBIS models, so we cannot correlate with
the original simulation models. The only thing we can do is make
sure there are no typographical errors. This model was created
using S2IBIS2 and an [Proprietary Language]. I pieced together from the
original simulation model ([Proprietary Language]). let me know if you see
any inconsistencies or if something fails to meet your
expectations. I am really trying to push for some software that
allows us to run IBIS and your input would be appreciated!
Needless to say, I was shocked to find out that I am getting an IBIS
model from someone who could not test it, even if they wanted to. Any
vendors out there care to donate software?
