Hi:

  After reading the messages in this thread, I noticed that many model
deficiencies have been pointed out by various authors. One additional
type of model defect worth mentioning, is that some models include false
logic threshold values. For example, an IBIS model may show Vinl = 0.8
V, Vinh = 2.0 v, when inapplicable. As explained in a previous post,
simulation of a receiver model possessing false thresholds may produce
results indicating invalid ringback violations or flight time values.

  Regards,
  Abe Riazi

My major pet peeves:

Packages that are dead wrong.
... and most are.

Double counting die capacitance in with package
capacitance.

Ramps and Waveform tables created at high load resistance.

Min and Max waveform tables created at nominal voltage.

IV curves which don't pass through the origin.

Extracted parameters at typical corner only.

Loading that does not match the data sheet parameters.

... etc ... etc....
