Hi, I am validating a differential driver, LVDS buffer. Sections 4.6.1 and 4.6.2 of the COOKBOOK-V4 are insisting on separating Differential current (Idiff) and Common mode current (Icom). Then differential current need to modeled as a series [model] : In my model, I did not find any series [model] key word. Please clear the following queries: 1: What will happen if differential current and common mode currents are not separated? 2: Is it possible to identify (seeing the I-V pull-up/pull-down Curve) that there exists of a resistor (series element) between the pads (pad+ and pad-) and not been modeled. I am attaching the I-V Curves. This Pull-up and Pull-down tables are generation with this algorithm: A1: The sum of potential at the output pads is equal to 2.4. (2 * 1.2) (Vpad+) + (Vpad-) = 2*Vref (here 1.2V) = ( Vref + DeltaV) + ( Vref - DeltaV) I(IVtable) =I(raw) - Iclamp A2: The clamp currents are measured with both the pads being at same potential. V(pad+) = V(pad-) Pull-down curve Pull-up curve related to VCC. Muniswara Reddy .
