Hi All,
I am tasked with creating an IBIS model for an LVDS receiver cell that has an internal 100 ohm termination between the P and N nodes. I had asked Bob Ross about this a while ago and as usual he was very helpful. From his response I used the following
implementation:

|****************************************************************
| Component: LVDSRCV
|****************************************************************
|
[Component] LVDSRCV
[Manufacturer] AMCC
|
|
|
[Package]
| variable typ min max
R_pkg 1E-3 NA NA
L_pkg 1E-9 NA NA
C_pkg 1E-12 NA NA
|
[Pin] signal_name model_name R_pin L_pin C_pin
  1 PAD lvdsrcv NA NA NA
  2 PADN lvdsrcv NA NA NA
|
[Series Pin Mapping] pin_2 model_name function_table_group
1 2 rterm_100

|
[Diff_pin] inv_pin vdiff tdelay_typ tdelay_min tdelay_max
|
   1 2 0.2 0 0 0

[Model] rterm_100
C_comp 0.1pF 0.1pF 0.1pF

Model_type Series
|variable R(typ) R(min) R(max)
[R Series] 100 80 120

[Temperature Range] 25.00 125.00 0.00
[Voltage Range] 1.800 1.650 1.950

****************************************************************************************

I was able to get the model past the IBIS checker but my simulations did not show the 100 ohm terminator. I was using a tool which I believe does not support this implementation (no need to mention names). I have seen other implementations where I believe
a "Dynamic clamp" is used to model the termination behavior, but I am unsure. Can anyone guide me to some reference material or weigh in with your experience or help.

Thanks alot,
Peter
