[IBIS-Users] V-t curves offset

Hi all,

     I'm working with IBIS models validation and I have a problem
correlating the IBIS model with transistor level buffer in HSPICE. I
simulate both buffers with the same conditions (same load, temperature,
voltage supply) and the rising/falling edges of the outputs are equal but
there is a delay between IBIS model output waveform and transistor level
buffer output waveform. I shift the V-t Tables in the IBIS model to
compensate the delay and the output waveforms are matched but this occurs
when the input signal has rising/falling times equal to the rising/falling
times used to extract the IBIS model, if I use a input signal with
rising/falling times lower than the rising/falling times used to extract the
V-t curves then the buffer implemented with the IBIS model has again a
delay.
   What happens?
   How can I understand this? How can I avoid this delay?
   Or this phenomenom is normal because the important thing is the edge
waveform (buffer switching behavior) and the delay obtained is not relevant?
   Or the V-t curves obtained with specyfic rise/fall times are only valid
to simulate buffers with input signals with the same rise/fall times ?

   Thanks.

   Regards.
