[Re: Re: About WARNING of ibischk2]

  Chris, Syed,
   thank you very much for your cooperation.

   We checked our spice netlist. The bugs were found in that.
  The warnings are cleared at the new IBIS model. Thank you
  very much.

 - Regards,
    A.Takegama ( tkgm@tdc.tijp.ti.com )

Akihiro,

I'm not sure I understand your question exactly.

The slope of the load line designated by "x"'s in your diagram is just
the load resistance 50 Ohms (= 50 Volts/Amp). Its actually -50 due to
the current polarity.

The load-line represents the load resistor while the V/I curve
designated by "*" in your diagram represents the DC characteristics of
the totem pole output stage while driving low (top transistor off) shown
in Fig 2.

Hope this answers your question.

Chris
