Jon:

Since the IBIS table for a diode will contain Rs, we then need to be concerned
about how large the Rs is before the differences become significant. I have
assumed that Rs itself has a negligible effect for the region of operation.
However, the topology of the IBIS model is not exactly that of a Spice model,
so I would expect some difference. Can you characterize how large the
difference is or what the different effects are?

Also, my intent was to create a current dependent capacitance model where
the current is better defined than the voltage.
