Box 655303 Dallas, TX 75265 Support: TI has a three-pronged attack on IBIS support. TI is working on a scheme to automatically generate IBIS models from TI Spice simulations (TI's proprietary Spice dialect), on an automatic means to generate C code to be linked in to TI Spice as a User Defined Element from an IBIS model, and an automatic means to create the Spice equivalent of the IBIS model from the IBIS model specification. The latter method differs from the second in that it uses skeletonized Spice primitive elements in the form of a subcircuit, while the second actually generates C code and compiles it for dynamic linking.
