Anand, 

Additionally to question 1, The AMI simulator will not use the traditional
SPICE algorithms. It should be new to your SPICE simulator that you already
have.

Anand,

 

1)  As far as I know there are several vendors who support IBIS-AMI,

    including my employer, Mentor.  I will let the Synopsys people

    answer your question about HSPICE specifically.

2)  To my knowledge there is no Cookbook on IBIS-AMI available yet.

    However, you can browse through the presentations on the topic

    on the IBIS web page and get some ideas from them.

    http://www.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/summits/index-bydate.htm

3)  A full fledged .IBS file alone is not going to help you much

    because there is really not much in the .IBS file other than a

    pointer to the AMI DLL and its parameter file (.ami).  What you

    need is a good example (i.e. a working DLL) with an appropriate

    parameter file (.ami) and a simulator that can run them.

 

I hope this helps,

 

Arpad

Subject: [IBIS-Users] IBIS - AMI - questions

 

Hi,

 

I had a few questions regarding the IBIS AMI which has been included in

the IBIS 5.0. I read through the BIRD document and looked at the

evaluation kit from SiSoft for AMI. 

 

(1) Are AMI constructs supported by Hspice or any other simulator?

(2) Is there any IBIS cookbook style document which describes how to do

the modeling? 

(3) A full-fledged IBIS (*.ibs) file with the proposed AMI constructs

would really help my understanding.

 

Thanks

Anand
