Questions tagged [ibis]

IBIS is the acronym to Input/output Buffer Information Specification. These models are used for simulations.

IBIS models are used for simulation. Most IC vendors provide these models for their IC for free. The models are a plain text files with the current/voltage and voltage /time curves of each pin.

What software can I use to simulate I.B.I.S. models?

I am trying to simulate a switch (TS5A3154) which is made by Texas Instruments but the only models they have available are ones called IBIS Models. Now I have done a little bit of research and found that it means Input/Output Buffer Information…

How can you block the parasitic body diode in digital CMOS I/O IC design?

I've been screwing around with IBIS models lately and came across something that left me scratching my head. First, the generic model structure for the semiconductor portions of an IBIS I/O looks like the following (taken from this article): When…

What exactly are IBIS simulation models? Can I use them like a normal simulation component?

I read a lot about IBIS. "What I understood is that they basically model the input and output voltage and current data based on actual performance instead of describing them through equations like in SPICE. Please correct me if I am wrong. I cannot…

How to measure the I-V characteristic for IBIS-model?

As the IBIS spec says (pg.184) the voltage range for a GND clamp I-V characteristic must be GND-POWER...GND+POWER. For example, if the IC uses a 3.3V power, the lowest I-V characteristic voltage must be a -3.3V. The same lowest voltage must be used…

Alternative IBIS model for receiver

What do you do when you want to simulate a signal (i.e with Hyperlynx) but you can't find the IBIS model of the receiver chip? What parameters do you need? Where can you find them?

How do we simulate the circuits which have processors. Is there any way we can simulate the circuit before going to the pcb manufacturing?

I'm working on a project on which I'm using a snapdragon 410e processor. I'm done with the circuit design since all the data is available online for designing the PCB. But I want to simulate the whole circuits, Is there any way I can simulate these…
