The IBIS Open Forum is pleased to announce that the IBIS Interconnect
Modeling Specification (ICM) version 1.0 has been approved and is now
available for download. The specification text can be found in a
variety of formats at:

http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/icm_ver1.0/

The ICM specification permits model authors to represent a
wide variety of interconnects, including connectors, cables and
packages, in an ASCII-based, human-readable format.
Interconnect topologies can be described using implicit (tree) or
explicit (nodal) connections, and conductor swathing is supported.
Coupling can be represented by RLGC matrices or S-parameter data
in Touchstone(R) format.

A golden parser is in development.

Please feel free to address comments to the IBIS reflector, to me
or to any officer of the IBIS Open Forum.
