Hi Lynne, Thanks for the reply. As mentioned in my earlier mail, if I use the 1.5K resistor to simulate, it will use up to 100ns to stabilize. This will affect my resolution especially for fall time, since each step is only 1ns and my fall time is less than 10ns. Is it ok to just have 50 Ohm V-T table (which has rise time <10ns), since this will provide a good resolution for both the rise and fall time?

In addition to that resistor, one needs a V-t load (the 50 ohms you refer to). The 50 ohm load is described in the IBIS Cookbook, http://www.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/cookbook/cookbook-v4.pdf. This means your simulation will have both resistors: the 1.5K and the 50 ohms. Once you have completed your model, please feel welcome to submit your model to the IBIS Model Review Committee, http://www.eigroup.org/ibis/support.htm.

However, when I use the suggested pullup resistor (1.5K), the rising waveform takes up to 100ns to stabilize, but the falling waveform requires less than 10ns. This creates inaccuracy due to the resolution of the points (when I use 100ns simulation time). In the IBIS model, I also included a waveform for 50Ohm pullup resistor (as recommended by cookbook). The rising waveform for this is also within 10ns. I wonder if I can generate IBIS model with ONLY 50 Ohm pullup because the resolution is more appropriate in this case? I have verified this model and the simulation shows acceptable waveforms. Kindly advice whether it is a MUST to have a 1.5K pullup resistor V-T table. Thank you.
