(260):GND - reserved model name, used with ground pins (667):Usage Rules: All pins on a component must be specified. The first column must contain the pin name. The second column, signal_name, gives the data book name for the signal on that pin. The third column, model_name, maps a pin to a specific I/O buffer model or model selector name. Each model_name must have a corresponding model or model selector name listed in a [Model] or [Model Selector] keyword below, unless it is a reserved model name (POWER, GND, or NC). (689): 10 GND GND 297.0m 6.7nH 3.4pF (691): 12 GND GND 270.0m 5.3nH 4.0pF (733):Usage Rules: The [Pin Mapping] keyword names the connections between POWER and/or GND pins and buffer and/or terminator voltage supply references using unique bus labels. All buses with identical labels are assumed to be connected with an ideal short. Each label must be associated with at least one pin whose model_name is POWER or GND. Bus labels must not exceed 15 characters. (740):The usage of the columns changes for GND and POWER pins. For GND pins, the pulldown_ref column contains the name of the bus to which the pin connects; the pullup_ref column in this case must contain the reserved word NC. Similarly, for POWER (including external reference) pins, the pullup_ref column contains the name of the bus to which the pin connects; the pulldown_ref column in this case must contain the reserved word NC. (801):11 VSS1 GND (802):12 VSS1 GND (803):13 VSS1 GND (804):21 VSS2 GND (805):22 VSS2 GND (806):23 VSS2 GND (813):51 VSSCLAMP GND | Power connections for clamps (864):Usage Rules: Enter only series pin pairs. The first column, [Series Pin Mapping], contains the series pin for which input impedances are measured. The second column, pin_2, contains the other connection of the series model. Each pin must match the pin names declared previously in the [Pin] section of the .ibs file. The third column, model_name, associates models of type Series or Series_switch, or model selectors containing references to models of type Series or Series_switch for the pair of pins in the first two columns. Each model_name must have a corresponding model or model selector name listed in a [Model] or [Model Selector] keyword below. The usage of reserved model names (POWER, GND, or NC) within the [Series Pin Mapping] keyword is not allowed. The fourth column, function_table_group, contains an alphanumeric designator string to associate those sets of Series_switch pins that are switched together. (970):Usage Rules: Each model type must begin with the keyword [Model]. The model name must match the one that is listed under a [Pin], [Model Selector] or [Series Pin Mapping] keyword and must not contain more than 40 characters. A .ibs file must contain enough [Model] keywords to cover all of the model names specified under the [Pin], [Model Selector] and [Series Pin Mapping] keywords, except for those model names that use reserved words (POWER, GND and NC). (1491):Description: The data points under these keywords define the I-V tables of the pulldown and pullup structures of an output buffer and the I-V tables of the clamping diodes connected to the GND and the POWER pins, respectively. Currents are considered positive when their direction is into the component. (1574):The effective current table for the Isso_pd current is extracted by the following process. The buffer is set to “logic zero.” A Vtable voltage source is inserted between the [Pulldown Reference] node and the buffer as shown in Figure 7. This Vtable voltage is swept from -Vcc (typical) to +Vcc (typical) and is relative to the [Pulldown Reference] typ/min/max values for the corresponding columns. The output is connected to the GND (typical) value as shown in Figure 7. (1579):The effective current table for the Isso_pu current is extracted by the following process. The buffer is set to “logic one”. A Vtable voltage source is inserted between the [Pullup Reference] node and the buffer as shown below. This Vtable voltage is swept from -Vcc (typical) to +Vcc (typical) and is relative to the [Pullup Reference] typ/min/max values for the corresponding columns. The output is connected to the GND (typical) value as shown in Figure 8. (1609):For example, for a typ/min/max [Voltage Range] of 5.0V, 4.5V and 5.5V, and with the negative reference set to GND, the Isso_pu(0) and Isso_pd(0) values for typ/min/max should be equal to the column values as shown in Table 3. (1663):Description: The data for these keywords define the resistance values of Rgnd and Rpower connected to GND and the POWER pins, respectively, and the resistance and capacitance values for an AC terminator. See Figure 11. (1918):Figure 16 illustrates a general configuration from which a [Rising Waveform] or [Falling Waveform] is extracted. The DUT die shows all of the available power and ground pin reference voltage terminals. For many buffers, only one power pin and one common ground pin terminal are used. The absolute GND is the reference for the V_fixture voltage and the package model equivalent network. It can also serve as a reference for C_comp, unless C_comp is optionally split into component attached to the other reference voltages. (1925):Other Notes: Figure 17 documents some expected internal paths for a useful special case where only one common power pin (VDDQ) and one common ground exists (GND). (1943):The power reference terminal (VDDQ) is usually the [Pullup Reference], or the default [Voltage Range] terminal. The [Pulldown Reference] terminal is usually at the GND connection. (1945):In most cases six [Composite Current] tables are recommended for accurate modeling. The first four tables correspond to the recommended fixture conditions for [Rising Waveform] and [Falling Waveform] tables (normally 50 ohm loads to Vdd and GND). Two additional waveforms for no load conditions (such as with an R_fixture of 1.0 Megaohm) are useful. However, some EDA tools process only the first four waveforms. So the additional open load waveforms for I-T tables should be in [Rising Waveform] and [Falling Waveform] tables that are positioned after the other V-T tables to maintain the best output response simulation accuracy. (1948):The [Composite Current] table can be derived from currents measured at the [Pulldown Reference] (GND) node, but adjusted for the current flowing through the output pin and at other terminals.

When used, it must be placed after the end of the pin list defined by the [Pin Numbers] keyword and before the [Model Data] keyword. The keyword must be followed by one pin name (the merging pin) on the same line on which the keyword appears, separated by at least one white space. This pin name must be listed under the [Pin Numbers] keyword, it must be listed as a POWER or GND pin under the [Pin] keyword and it must also be a member of a power or ground bus defined by the [Pin Mapping] keyword. This is the pin whose package model contains the merged package model data for a group of power or ground pins. (3854):Each pin name in the list of merged pins must match the name of a POWER or GND pin in the [Pin] keyword and must also be a member of the same power or ground bus as the merging pin (pin name that follows the [Merged Pins] keyword). Pin names in this list must not be present in the pin list under the [Pin Numbers] keyword. The list must include the names of all those pins which are to be connected to the merging pin that follows the [Merged Pins] keyword due to merged modeling. No pin name may appear more than once under all [Merged Pins] keywords. (3861):[Description] FBGA Package Model for x4 Data Pins and POWER/GND (4173):Usage Rules: Following the [Pin List] keyword are two columns. The first column lists the pin name while the second lists the data book name of the signal connected to that pin. There must be as many pin_name/signal_name rows as there are pins given by the preceding [Number Of Pins] keyword. Pin names must be the alphanumeric external pin names of the part. The pin names cannot exceed eight characters in length. Any pin associated with a signal name that begins with “GND” or “POWER” will be interpreted as connecting to the boards ground or power plane. In addition, NC is a legal signal name and indicates that the Pin is a “no connect”. As per the IBIS standard “GND,” “POWER,” and “NC” are case insensitive. (4178): A1 GND (4194):Description: This keyword allows the user to describe the connection between the user accessible pins of a board level component and other pins or pins of the ICs mounted on that board. Each pin to node connection is divided into one or more cascaded “sections,” where each section is described in terms of its L/R/C per unit length. The Fork and Endfork subparameters allow the path to branch to multiple nodes, or another pin. A path description is required for each pin whose signal name is not “GND,” “POWER,” or “NC.” (4202):Usage Rules: Each individual connection path (user pin to node(s)) description begins with the [Path Description] keyword and a path name, followed by the subparameters used to describe the path topology and the electrical characteristics of each section of the path. The path name must not exceed 40 characters, blanks are not allowed, and each occurrence of the [Path Description] keyword must be followed by a unique path name. Every signal pin (pins other than POWER, GND or NC) must appear in one and only one path description per [Begin Board Description]/[End Board Description] pair. Pin names do not have to appear in the same order as listed in the [Pin List] table. The individual subparameters are broken up into those that describe the electrical properties of a section, and those that describe the topology of a path. (4397):[Pulldown] GND – POWER POWER + POWER (4398):[Pullup] GND – POWER POWER + POWER (4401):[Series Current] GND – POWER GND + POWER (4402):[Series MOSFET] GND GND + POWER (4417):Then: Attach a 50 ohm resistor to GND to derive the rising edge ramp. Attach a 50 ohm resistor to POWER to derive the falling edge ramp. (4423):Then: Attach either a 50 ohm resistor or the semiconductor vendor suggested termination resistance to either GND or the suggested termination voltage. Use this load to derive both the rising and falling edges.
