RE: [IBIS-Users] Ground Clamp Reference

Hi Lynne,

I understand that the range -Vcc to Vcc is the IBIS standard for Ground
Clamp curve, however, does the range change according to the min and max
simulation? For example, in min, my Vcc will be lower hence, the range
-Vcc to Vcc will be different from the range for typical simulation, is
that right? Same case for max, my Vcc will be higher, so does my
simulation range change according to the max Vcc as well?

Thanks.

Best regards,
Mei Yee

Hello, Mei Yee,
 
Yes, this is standard for all of the I-V tables.  It is highly
recommended
that all I-V tables should go from -Vcc to 2*Vcc in the completed IBIS
model.
 
More information can be found in the IBIS Cookbook.
http://www.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/cookbook/cookbook-v4.pdf
 
When you have completed a model, please feel free to send it to the IBIS
Model Review Committee.

Best regards,
Lynne

	Hi all,

	 

	I used s2ibis3 to simulate my Input pad and I realized that the
sweep range for Ground Clamp curves are from -Vcc to Vcc, where Vcc is
the
the value for typical. However, this range remains the same figure for
ALL
corners i.e. fast, slow and typical. This means that if my Vcc is 3V,
the
sweep range for all the corners is -3 to 3V, regardless of my Vcc at
various
corners.

	 

	Is this the standard for Ground clamp? I tried using the keyword
[GND clamp reference] 2.7 3 3.3 but the range still remains -3 to 3V.

	 

	Kindly advice.

	 

	Thank you.

	 

	Best regards, 

	Mei Yee
