[IBIS] RE: [ibis-editorial] Re: An editorial change for IBIS

Arpad,

 

This can be better stated, but the intended rule is that a

referenced [Define Package Model] <same_name> defined

"locally" within that .ibs file overrides in identical

[Define Package Model] <same_name> that resides in

one or more .pkg files residing in the same directory.

 

(That is the context for the statements and where the

local versus "global" terminology is supposed to convey.)

 

Bob

A very similar sentence appears on pg. 138 also which raises

the same questions, and should be fixed the same way:

 

"In addition, within that .ibs file, they override any globally defined
package models that have the same name."

 

Thanks,

Hello,

 

I think I found a sentence in the IBIS specification which might

need to be corrected for the next version.

 

I see the following sentence on pg. 22:

 

"In addition, within that .ibs file, they override any globally defined
package models that have the same name."

 

I have an issue with the second half of it.  What does "globally

defined package models" refer to?  As far as I can tell, this

refers to the [Package] keyword and the package parasitics in the

[Pin] keyword.  But neither of these keywords (or package models)

have a name.  So what does the end of the sentence "have the same name"

refer to?

 

I think this should be corrected to whatever the correct answer is.

Does this need a BIRD, or could this be handled in the editorial

task group?

 

Thanks,

 

Arpad
