Subject: Modelling an open drain driver

Hey

I'm trying to make an IBIS model (from SPICE) for an open drain driver.

The driver is powered from 2.5V and the Vpullup is either 2.5V or 3.3V.

I have tried to sketch the end user application below
                                                              
                        ___Vpullup
                        |
                        |
                        /

         OD driver / | |
                        \ ____________ | |
              ______.___|____| 60 ohm |_____| Receiver |
             | |____________| | |
            _| | |
          -|_ |__________|
             |
             |
             |__ VSS
                                                              
                    |
      -----Driver---|-----------normal use circuit--------------

1)
I'm in doubt how to write the S2IBIS setup file (.s2i) for an OD driver.
I know that I should use the 'Open_sink' modeltype, but how should I define the rising and falling waveforms.
I would assume that R_fixture = 60 ohm and V_fixture = Vpullup

Moreover I imagine that I should only do the falling waveform and not the rising, which would be controlled by the external pullup resistor.

2)
Additionally it is possible to include both cases in the same model, i.e. Vpullup equals either 2.5V or 3.3V

and would a simulator be able to select the right waveforms to use?
