Hello Tim:

Actually, ibischk3 should work correctly for any set of
waveform endpoints based on R_fixture and V_fixture values.

The manual calculation of voltage can be done by iteration.
You assume a voltage, and then calculate the current needed
to supply R_fixture and V_fixture for either the high state
hen you add up the currents supplied by the [Pullup] table
(plus the [Gnd Clamp] and [Power Clamp] tables for the assumed
voltage.

If the currents are different, readjust the voltage in
the correct direction and repeat. Eventually you should
converge on the solution.

Then you repeat this process for the low state using the
[Pulldown] table and clamps.
