Re: FET switch model for BX designs

Weston,

Viewlogic's XTK supports the following IBIS V3.0 features in the
upcoming 1998.1 release. Due to few available .ibs example files these
items are identified as BETA features.

       1) Series FET switch
       2) EBD descriptions
       3) T-LINE package model descriptions
       4) Driver Scheduling
      
Please respond to me with requests for additional 3.0 features you may
require.

Regards,

Chris Rokusek
