6.0 Can IBIS model SSO(Simultaneous Switching Output) ?

IBIS as a model, has all the important parameters required to model an
SSO event. These are mainly the package inductance, other associated
parasitics and the number of buffers switching. IBIS specifies R, L and
C in matrix format and the use of a matrix for the inductance accounts
for the "loop"inductance i.e. the mutuals between the pins. Specifying
the mutual inductance is necessary to account for SSO event simulation.

[Pin Mapping] keyword was specifically defined in IBISv2.1 to handle
SSO defination. Simulating SSO depends on the model provided and the
simulator used.
