Bob Ross noted that Mike LaBonte is conducting the meeting as Michael Mirmak is unable to attend. CALL FOR PATENTS Mike LaBonte called for any patents or pending patents related to the IBIS 3.2, IBIS 4.2, IBIS 5.1, IBIS 6.0, Touchstone 2.0 or ICM 1.1 specifications. No patents were declared. REVIEW OF MINUTES AND ARS Randy Wolff called for comments regarding the minutes of the November 1, 2013 IBIS Open Forum teleconference. The minutes were approved without changes. He then called for comments regarding the minutes of the November 15, 2013 IBIS Summit in Shanghai. He noted that minutes incorrectly show Stephen Guo associated with Cadence when he actually is associated with Spreadtrum Communications. The minutes were approved with the noted change. Randy then called for comments regarding the minutes of the November 19, 2013 IBIS Summit in Taipei. The minutes were approved without changes. Finally, Randy called for comments regarding the minutes of the November 22, 2013 IBIS Summit in Yokohama. The minutes were approved without changes. MISCELLANY/ANNOUNCEMENTS None. CALL FOR NEW ISSUES Walter Katz requested time to give a short presentation on interconnect modeling. MEMBERSHIP STATUS AND TREASURER'S REPORT Bob Ross reported that we may have 22 members. We have accumulated a large amount of money ~$14,500 from summits, parser payments and an additional membership. This puts us in good shape for 2014 activities. Bob will be inquiring with SAE about sending out membership invoices for 2014. If anyone needs an invoice in 2013, contact Bob for help. There may also be one additional membership payment for 2013 coming in. Mike LaBonte asked if the $14,500 was purely from Summits. Bob responded that no, this includes other payments. Mike asked if the accounting is from SAE. Bob responded that no, this is his own accounting. Radek asked if we can we move forward with parser development using this money. Mike noted that we’d like to get other payments first, as this money is more of a backup. Bob responded that some of this money will also be used for the DesignCon IBIS Summit. WEB PAGE AND MAILING LIST ADMINISTRATION Mike LaBonte reported that the IBIS home page has a DesignCon promotional banner on it due to our contract with DesignCon. There are 413 subscribers on the mailing list and this is the third largest on eda.org. He is doing some checking to make sure there are not broken links on the web page. The upcoming event page was updated to move the Asia Summits down the list. MODEL LIBRARY UPDATE No update. INTERNATIONAL/EXTERNAL ACTIVITIES - Conferences None. - Press Update Bob Ross noted that Michael Mirmak sent a link to a paper recently mentioning IBIS-AMI modeling. The paper is “Advancements in High-Speed Link Modeling and Simulation (An Invited Paper for CICC 2013)”. The paper was presented at the Custom Integrated Circuits Conference by authors Mike Peng Li, Masashi Shimanouchi, and Hsinho Wu of Altera. The abstract for the paper can be viewed at: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/articleDetails.jsp?arnumber=6658462 SUMMIT PLANNING AND STATUS - Asia Events Mike LaBonte thanked Lance Wang for his role in facilitating the Summits. Bob Ross summarized the Summits. They were all successful. The Shanghai meeting had 109 participants, Taipei had 64 participants and Yokohama had 107 participants. Lance conducted meetings in Shanghai and Taipei, and Michael Mirmak conducted the meeting in Yokohama. Attendance was a bit lower than expected, so some sponsorship money was not used. Extra funds will be carried over to 2014. Sponsors of the Shanghai event included Huawei as the major sponsor and cosponsors including Agilent, ANSYS, Cadence, Intel, IO Methodology, Teledyne LeCroy and Synopsys. For the Taipei event, ANSYS was the major sponsor and cosponsors included Cadence, Intel, IO Methodology and Synopsys. For the Yokohama event, JEITA and the IBIS Open Forum were major sponsors and cosponsors included ANSYS, Cadence, Mentor Graphics and Zuken. - DesignCon 2014 Mike reported that the Summit is scheduled for Friday, January 31, 2014. IBIS is an official co-sponsor of DesignCon. The first call for papers should go out mid-December. Mike noticed a few companies giving presentations during the morning of our Summit meeting, so he hoped that some of those papers would be presented in the afternoon. Sponsorship opportunities for all upcoming IBIS summits are available, with sponsors receiving free mentions in the minutes, agenda, and other announcements. Contact the IBIS Board for further details. QUALITY TASK GROUP Mike LaBonte reported that the group is doing two things recently including working on the ibischk6 parser and a document describing the parser operation. Work is progressing slowly. The group is continuing to meet weekly on Tuesdays at 8:00 am PT. The Quality Task Group checklist and other documentation can be found at: http://www.eda.org/ibis/quality_wip/ ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY MODELING TASK GROUP Arpad Muranyi reported that the group is meeting regularly on Tuesdays at 12:00 p.m. PT. They are discussing how to implement package modeling using IBIS-ISS. Task group material can be found at: http://www.eda.org/ibis/macromodel_wip/ NEW ADMINISTRATIVE ISSUES None. BIRD125.1: MAKE IBIS-ISS AVAILABLE FOR IBIS PACKAGE MODELING Discussion was tabled. BIRD128: ALLOW AMI_PARAMETERS_OUT TO PASS AMI_PARAMETERS_IN DATA ON CALLS TO AMI_GETWAVE Discussion was tabled. BIRD145.3: CASCADING IBIS I/O BUFFERS WITH [EXTERNAL CIRCUIT]S USING THE [MODEL CALL] KEYWORD Discussion was tabled. BIRD147: BACK-CHANNEL SUPPORT Discussion was tabled. BIRD157: PARAMETERIZE [DRIVER SCHEDULE] Discussion was tabled. BIRD158.3: AMI TOUCHSTONE ANALOG BUFFER MODELS Discussion was tabled. BIRD161.1: SUPPORTING INCOMPLETE AND BUFFER-ONLY [COMPONENT] DESCRIPTIONS Discussion was tabled. IBISCHK5 PARSER AND BUG STATUS Bob Ross reported no new bugs. IBISCHK6 PARSER PLANNING Bob Ross reported that we are reviewing the development contract. The parser contract is scoped to include two open bugs and at least 6 BIRDs. If everything gets signed and approved, delivery will be in April. There are sufficient funds in the bank account, so we will be able to pay the developer when he is done. There are commitments for payments for at least four licenses. All that is needed is to finalize the contract, get the legal verbiage approved by SAE and start the signature process. Bob noted that one request in the contract was to have source code work with the GCC 4.1.2 compiler, but 4.2.1 is the earliest version the developer can work with. The contract will be modified for this. Mike LaBonte noted that it would be good to get some feedback from parser purchasers if they have any specific compiler requirements. NEW TECHNICAL ISSUES Walter Katz showed a presentation he gave at the ATM task group meeting on Tuesday related to on-die and package interconnect modeling. A decision was made about what types of models will be supported with EMD and what models could be supported within the .ibs file by enhancing [Component]. The most significant decision meant that for signal (I/O) pins, there is a one-to-one correspondence between pin number, die pad and buffer. Upcoming decisions include: will we support touchstone files directly without requiring they be wrapped in a subckt, port naming options, and support of corners for parameters. Developing a port naming protocol will be critical to supporting all the modeling options. Walter hoped a presentation could be given at the DesignCon Summit that would show a nearly complete syntax. NEXT MEETING The next IBIS Open Forum teleconference will be held January 10, 2014 from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. US Pacific Time. The DesignCon IBIS Summit will be held January 31, 2014. No teleconference will be available for the Summit meeting. Radek Biernacki moved to adjourn. Brad Brim seconded the motion. There were no objections. ======================================================================== NOTES IBIS CHAIR: Michael Mirmak (916) 356-4261, Fax (916) 377-3788 michael.mirmak@intel.com Data Center Platform Applications Engineering Intel Corporation FM5-239 1900 Prairie City Rd., Folsom, CA 95630 VICE CHAIR: Lance Wang (978) 633-3388 lwang@iometh.com President/CEO, IO Methodology, Inc.
