Anand, Additionally to question 1, The AMI simulator will not use the traditional SPICE algorithms. It should be new to your SPICE simulator that you already have.

I will let the Synopsys people answer your question about HSPICE specifically. 2) To my knowledge there is no Cookbook on IBIS-AMI available yet. However, you can browse through the presentations on the topic on the IBIS web page and get some ideas from them. http://www.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/summits/index-bydate.htm 3) A full fledged .IBS file alone is not going to help you much because there is really not much in the .IBS file other than a pointer to the AMI DLL and its parameter file (.ami). What you need is a good example (i.e. a working DLL) with an appropriate parameter file (.ami) and a simulator that can run them. I hope this helps, Arpad ===================================================================== -----Original Message----- From: owner-ibis-users@server.eda.org [mailto:owner-ibis-users@server.eda.org] On Behalf Of Anand Ramalingam Sent: Friday, June 12, 2009 2:24 PM To: ibis-users@server.eda.org Subject: [IBIS-Users] IBIS - AMI - questions Hi, I had a few questions regarding the IBIS AMI which has been included in the IBIS 5.0. I read through the BIRD document and looked at the evaluation kit from SiSoft for AMI. (1) Are AMI constructs supported by Hspice or any other simulator? (2) Is there any IBIS cookbook style document which describes how to do the modeling? (3) A full-fledged IBIS (*.ibs) file with the proposed AMI constructs would really help my understanding.
