Prabhat,
Thanks for your reply!
The timing test load in an IBIS model refers to the conditions under which the device's timing is specified, which don't have to match the way the device is used in an actual system. The values of Vref, Cref, and Rref should match the output timing specifications in the component datasheet. The IBIS timing test load information gets used to normalize the interconnect delays measured during signal integrity analysis of the system topology, so that they can be used to calculate system timing (setup/hold) margins.
Todd.

A series resistor is used with parrallel terminated load in JEDEC SSTL_2 Class I or ClassII Output Buffers.
I think "parallel terminated loads with series resistor" should be defined as timing test load in IBIS models
because this setup is also used for timing measurement of buffers.
In my case Series resistance value is 25 Ohms.
thanks n regards
Prabhat

What value of Rseries are you looking to include, and what is its purpose in the reference timing measurement?

Subject: [IBIS-Users] Timing test load
For a Output buffer IBIS model, I have following type Timing test load setup.
_________

|DRIVER| \|---O----/\/\/\----O----/\/\/\---o Vref

Vref, Cref and Rref keywords are existing in IBIS spec. But how can I mention Rseries resistance as TIMING TEST LOAD in my IBIS model? -- Thanks n Regards Prabhat Ranjan
