Hi Mike:
What you have described is one of the most common types of model
deficiency I have observed in IBIS models. however, in many cases it is
quite simple to fix this kind of model defect. Frequently, all that is
required to complete the pin mapping section of the model is the
datasheet of the device and an ASCII file editor.
