Yoni,

1. It appears from excerpt of the posted .ibs model that this is a 1
pin model. If you mail me the entire model I could verify this.

2. To determine what type of model it is, you need to search the
.ibs file for [model] bsstl2c2_a then check the model_type value.
looking at your IBIS "B call" it appears you have an I/O cell. If this
were an input cell then the bcall would have 4 nodes (and would error
with the 6 node B call). If this is an I/O cell, then the nodes would
translate as such;

in - (driver input stimulus of I/O cell) - typically refered to as "A"
out - (this is the I/O cell pad) - typically refered to as PAD
en - (enable pin) - typically refered to as O_EN
vout _of_in (the output pin of the input receiver) typically Z
nd_pu - power rail - typically VCC
nd_pd - ground rail - typically GND or 0

3. So depending whether you want to hook up to the output of the
reciever (i.e. on chip received signal) or the PAD of the I/O cell you
should hook up to "V_out_of_in" or "out" (respectively).

If this is not clear please feel free to drop me a line directly.
