RE: [IBIS-Users] VHDL-AMS Model

Hello Lynne,

Thanks a lot for your prompt responce and the useful information.
Do you have a link or document showing how to model the VHDL-AMS model?
Btw, what tools support the simulation of VHDL-AMS model? Are HyperLynx and
Hspice able to simulate this model?

Thanks again for your excellent support so far.
- Lee
