OK,

From the inputs I have received from other members it seems that the
best approach to the SuperCon sign is for me to make 1 (or 2) big signs
that I put everyones logo's on.

If you wish to have your company logo on the IBIS sign:

1) You must be a current IBIS member (EIA etc.)
2) You must send me an electric copy of your logo that is suitable for
approx. 8x10 inch printing (ie. high resolution). The picture must be in
either JPEG or GIFF format.
3) You must send me a request to have your logo on the sign. (email is
OK, I think)
4) All of this material must be to me by Jan 1, 1999 (really)
5) Sign background color will be WHITE. If you LOGO needs a different
background color make sure that is included in the artwork.

To avoid other issues, I would like to only have COMPANY LOGOs on the
sign. No product logos or booth numbers.

my email address is:
jonp@pacbell.net

If any part of this seems unworkable, please send me comments soonest.
Otherwise:
LET THE LOGOS FLY!

jon

IBIS folks:

BIRD57 is issued at the last minute to deal with a real-life "timed =
latch"
implementation situation which could not be modeled with the current
Bus_hold model.  The proposed resolution is to add a subparameter to =
the
[Submodel Spec] keyword.

Because these changes are required to model exisiting devices, it would =
be
very important to incorporate them in version 3.2 of the IBIS spec.  =
Since
the changes are relatively minor, it would be desirable to vote on this =
BIRD
on the December 18, 1998 meeting provided no serious technical issues =
arise.

BIRD ID#:       57
ISSUE TITLE:    Timed Bus Hold Extension
REQUESTER:      Bob Ross, Mentor Graphics,
                Arpad Muranyi & Stephen Peters, Intel=20
DATE SUBMITTED: December 4, 1998
DATE ACCEPTED BY IBIS OPEN FORUM: Pending

************************************************************************=

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE:

A new application of the bus hold functionality involves turning off
(putting in a Hi Z state) the bus hold circuitry after a period of =
time.=20
The Bus_hold submodel can be extended to support this functionality =
with the
addition of a delay subparameter in the [Submodel Spec] keyword.

************************************************************************=
******

STATEMENT OF THE RESOLVED SPECIFICATIONS:

The unofficial IBIS Version 3.2 document that includes the BIRD48.4, =
BIRD49.4=20
and BIRD50.3 extensions is used as the basis for showing how BIRD57 =
would be
implemented.

The original [Submodel Spec] keyword is modified by the addition of a =
new
subparameter called Off_delay.  The changes are indicated by an =
asterisk at
the beginning of each line (|*) that it effects.

|     Keyword:  [Submodel Spec]
|    Required:  No
| Description:  The [Submodel Spec] keyword defines four columns under =
which=20
|               specification and information subparameters are defined =
for=20
|               submodels.
|*  Sub-Params:  V_trigger_r, V_trigger_f, Off_delay
|
| Usage Rules:  The [Submodel Spec] is to be used only with submodels.
|
|               The following subparameters are used:
|                 V_trigger_r           Rising edge trigger voltage=20
|                 V_trigger_f           Falling edge trigger voltage=20
|*                 Off_delay             Turn-off delay from =
V_trigger_r
|*                                       or V_trigger_f
|*
|               For each subparameter contained in the first column, =
the
|               remaining three hold its typical, minimum and maximum =
values.=20
|               The entries of typical, minimum and maximum be must be =
placed=20
|               on a single line and must be separated by at least one =
white=20
|               space or tab or tab character.  All four columns are =
required=20
|               under the [Submodel Spec] keyword.  However, data is =
required=20
|               only in the typical column.  If minimum and/or maximum =
values=20
|               are not available, the reserved word "NA" must be used =
to
|               indicate the typical value by default.=20
|
|               The values in the minimum and maximum columns usually
|               correspond to the values in the same columns for the =
inherited=20
|               top-level voltage range or reference voltages in the =
top-level=20
|*               model.  The V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f subparameters=20
|*               should hold values in the minimum and maximum columns =
that=20
|*               correspond to the voltage range or reference voltages =
of the
|*               top-level model.  The Off_delay subparameter, however, =
is an=20
|*               exception to this rule because in some cases it may be =

|*               completely or partially independent from supply =
voltages=20
|*               and/or manufacturing process variations.  Therefore =
the
|*               minimum and maximum entries for the Off_delay =
subparameter
|*               should be ordered simply by their magnitude.
|
|               Unless noted, each [Submodel Spec] subparameter is =
independent=20
|               of any other subparameter.
|
|               V_trigger_r, V_trigger_f rules:=20
|
|               The voltage trigger values for the rising and falling =

|
|*               Off_delay rules:=20
|*
|*               The functionality of the Off_delay subparameter is to =

| Bus Hold:
|
| When the Submodel_type subparameter under the [Submodel] keyword is =
set to=20
| Bus_hold, the added model describes the bus hold functionality.  =
However,=20
| while described in terms of bus hold functionality, active =
terminators
| can also be modeled.
|
| Existing keywords and subparameters are used to describe bus hold =
models.=20
| The [Pullup] and [Pulldown] tables both are used to define an =
internal
| buffer that is triggered switch to its opposite state.  This =
switching=20
| transition is specified by a [Ramp] keyword or by the [Rising =
Waveform]
| and [Falling Waveform] keywords.  The usage rules for these keywords =
are the=20
| same as under the [Model] keyword.  In particular, at least either =
the
| [Pullup] or [Pulldown] keyword is required.  Also, the [Ramp] keyword =
is
| required, even if the [Rising Waveform] and [Falling Waveform] tables =
exist.=20
| However, the voltage ranges and reference voltages are inherited from =
the
| top-level model.
|
|* For bus hold submodels, the [Submodel Spec] keyword, V_trigger_r, =
and
|* V_trigger_f are required.  The Off_delay subparameter is optional, =
but
|* can only be used if the submodel consists of a pullup or a pulldown
|* structure only, and not both.  Devices which have both pullup and =
pulldown
|* structures controlled in this fashion can be modeled using two =
submodels,
|* one for each half of the circuit.
|
| The transition is triggered by action at the die using the [Submodel =
Spec]=20
| V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f subparameters as follows:
|
| If the starting voltage is below V_trigger_f, then the bus hold model =
is
| set to the low state causing additional pulldown current.  If the =
starting=20
| voltage is above V_trigger_r, the bus hold model is set to the high
| state for additional pullup current.  When the input passes though
| V_trigger_f during a high-to-low transition at the die, the bus hold =
output=20
| switches to the low state.  Similarly, when the input passes though
| V_trigger_r during a low-to-high transition at the die, the bus hold =
output=20
| switches to the high state.
|
|* If the bus hold submodel has a pullup structure only, V_trigger_r =
provides
|* the time when its pullup is turned on and V_trigger_f or Off_delay =
provides
|* the time when it is turned off, whichever occurs first.  Similarly, =
if the
|* submodel has a pulldown structure only, V_trigger_f provides the =
time when
|* its pulldown is turned on and V_trigger_r or Off_delay provides the =
time
|* when it is turned off, whichever occurs first.  The required =
V_trigger_r
|* and V_trigger_f voltage entries can be set to values outside of the =
input
|* signal range if the pullup or pulldown structures are to be held on =
until
|* the Off_delay turns them off.
|*
|* The starting mode for each of submodels which include the Off_delay
|* subparameter of the [Submodel Spec] keyword is the off state.  Also, =
while
|* two submodels provide the desired operation, either of the submodels =
may
|* exist without the other to model turning on and off only a pullup or =
a
|* pulldown current.
|*
| No additional keywords are needed for this functionality.=20

ANALYSIS PATH/DATA THAT LED TO SPECIFICATION:

BIRD57 is basically an extension of BIRD50.3.  BIRD50.3 describes a =
static=20
bus hold circuit which is controlled only by the pad voltage of the =
device.

However, some devices can have the bus hold circuits which are turned =
on=20
by the pad voltage, but are turned off by an internal timer of clock=20
signal.  These devices could not be modeled using the BIRD50.3 =
extensions.=20
BIRD57 provides the extension to model such devices.

Several approaches were considered:

  Modify or Enhance the [Driver Schedule] keyword for Input models
    (perhaps including a new keyword)
  Create a new Submodel_type for 'Timed_latch' as a new Submodel =
extension=20
  Enhance the Bus_hold Submodel

The first choice builds upon an older approach versus the newer, =
preferred=20
Submodel approach.  The second choice was considered, but in our =
discussions=20
we would have had to document mew meanings for some transition =
relationships=20
related to a desired Hi-Z mode.

The third choice was selected because the existing Bus Hold description =
for=20
"Open_drain" or Open_source" functionality could be easily extended.  =
The=20
off state of an Open_* device is equivalent to a Hi-Z mode.

Two Submodels are used since the off transition of each of the =
Submodels=20
can be entered by the [Ramp] information or corresponding [Rising =
Waveform]
or [Falling Waveform] table.  A single Submodel is permitted for just =
turning=20
on and off a pullup or pulldown current.

************************************************************************=

ANY OTHER BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

BIRD57 evolved from discussions between Bob Ross, Arpad Muranyi, and =
Stephen=20
Peters on December 3, 1998 to resolve how IBIS Version 3.2 would handle =
a=20
new active latch that is being implemented in digital buffers.

Subject: Version 3.2 Ratification Plan

To All:

I have uploaded an unofficial work in progress version of IBIS version 3.2
as ver3_2e.ibs on eda.org/pub/ibis/wip.  It contains a Pending BIRD56.

Because of the need to consider the recently issued BIRD57, we
are postponing plans to consider ratifying IBIS Version 3.2 at
the December 18, 1998 meeting.  We will consider closing out the 
open BIRDs leading to the documements needed for a ratification vote
at the meeting that will follow.

IBIS Connector sub-group meeting minutes:
Date: 12-3-98

Attended by:
************
Fabrizio Zanella (EMC), Kellee Crisafulli (Hyperlynx), Gus Panella (Molex), 
Mark Gailus and Mike Khusid (Teradyne)

Overview:
************
The specification has improved considerably and now follows the
IBIS IC format.

The basic specification is nearing completion and could now be used
to define and simulate connector models of up to 40 to 100 pins.  It could
be used as is with larger models of any size however the simulation and
development aspects of the method would discourage use by many companies.

Work is in progress to create a method of modeling very large connectors
that is both easy to create and fast to simulate.  We are assuming models
will need to be created for connectors with 1000's of pins and methods
need to be defined that are both acceptable to the connector companies
and the speed requirements of the simulator companies.  We are calling this
a "swath" method.

We expect to have a solid base line specification for release to the
full IBIS open forum by January.

Discussion:
***********
1) Discussed removing the SLM and MLM keywords since SLM models
   can be created with Banded_matrix and Bandwidth=0.
   The group agreed and the SLM/MLM type keyword is to be removed.
2) Discussed adding a new keyword Diagonal_matrix that is a simplified
   method of creating a Banded_matrix with Bandwidth=0.
   The group agreed and the keyword is to be added.
3) Discussed usage of the swath operator and decided to add additional
   keywords to describe the direction of the swath i.e. horizontal,
   vertical, and grid (both directions).
4) Discussed improvements, changes and additions to example models.
   

Action Items:
*************
Kellee: Update the specification from 0.22 to 0.23
Status: Done
  The specification changes per our meeting yesterday are checked
  in to directory 23 on the connector FTP site.
  I also moved the old versions 20-22 into the archive directory.

Gus: Modify existing model to convert it to two models, 
     one using swath the other just a basic multi line model.
Status: Done
  More work remaining on the swath model as the spec. is improved.

Kellee: Create one additional model showing a simple SLM connector.
Status: in process

Kellee: Create one additional simple model that uses SLM
        with multiple sections.
Status: in process

Kellee: Create one additional model showing a simple resistive 
        solder joint connection between 2 circuit boards.
Status: in process

Gus: Create 10x10 full connector model for comparison of IBIS model
     to SPICE model.
Status: in process

Gus: Create other models of GRID type connector using swath.
status: in process

IBIS Accuracy Subcommittee Minutes

Friday, December 4, 1998, held by conference call.

Participants

Greg Edlund, IBM (chair)
Bob Haller, Compaq
Bruce Heilbrunn
Peter LaFlamme, Fairchild Semiconductor

The next meeting is Friday, December 11, 1998 from 11:00 to 12:00 am EST


BUSINESS

The subcommittee has decided to conduct its business during a one-hour
conference call on Fridays opposite the IBIS Open Forum call.

Bob Haller reported that the final copy of our DesignCon99 paper, "A Tour
of the IBIS Accuracy Specification," was submitted and accepted.

List of work to be done:
1. Prepare the test board design files for publication – Greg, 12/31/98
2. Write an example "accuracy trailer" using test board data – Bob, Peter,
   12/31/98
3. Finish writing rev 1.0 of the spec – Greg, DesignCon99
4. Write an example "accuracy datasheet" using test board data – Greg, Bob,
   Peter, DesignCon99
5. Write the "IBIS Accuracy Test Board Application Note" – Greg, Fawn,
   DesignCon99
6. Write a Perl script to compute figures of merit – Bob, Fawn, DesignCon99


TECHNICAL

The subcommittee agrees on the need for some kind of accuracy trailer that
would be appended to an IBIS datasheet using comments.  In the very least,
the accuracy trailer would contain the accuracy figures of merit for
various measurements, i.e. the results of applying the correlation metrics.
Peter proposed indicating the existence of an accuracy trailer in an IBIS
datasheet using the [Source] keyword, which has an open-ended format.  Greg
favors adding a new IBIS keyword (in the long run) that could be used by
EDA vendors to set a flag somewhere in the GUI, indicating to the user that
the IBIS datasheet has been lab-verified.

In addition to an accuracy trailer, we may also put together an "IBIS
Accuracy Datasheet" that contains some of the same information as the
trailer but has the potential for more detail, such as simulation vs. lab
overlay plots.  Examples of both the trailer and the datasheet would be
based on data taken from the VCX16244 on the test board.

Bruce proposed adding some text to the disclaimer in the accuracy trailer
to the effect of, "accuracy does not imply syntactical correctness."  If a
user does not read the IBIS Accuracy Spec, he or she may have the notion
that accuracy and syntactical correctness are one in the same.

The subcommittee discussed the idea of amending the spec to include VT
tables.  This has been suggested by several people as a means for
circumventing simulation vs. hardware correlation.  We all agreed that we
would like to add VT tables to the spec in the future, but we don't have
the bandwidth to do it before DesignCon99.  VT tables would not replace
simulation results; they would be an alternative to simulation results.
The IBIS datasheet developer would be free to choose and would be
responsible for documenting this choice to the user.  Adding VT tables
would necessitate a BIRD to allow the three extra test loads called out in
the IBIS Accuracy Spec.  The subcommittee feels strongly that these loads
are necessary for insuring IBIS datasheet accuracy and has data to support
this statement.


Agenda for the next meeting:

Business

1. DesignCon99 paper and booth – 5 min.
2. Opening the conference call to interested parties after DesignCon99 – 5
   min.
3. The need for EIA approval of the IBIS Accuracy Specification – 20 min.

Technical

Review the accuracy trailer line by line.  Please read and offer comments
before hand. – 30 min.

Subject: IBIS BIRD57 - Timed Bus Hold Extension

To All:

BIRD57 is being sent out again since copies received on some
systems had extra characters in the text.

Bob Ross
Mentor Graphics


IBIS folks:

BIRD57 is issued at the last minute to deal with a real-life "timed latch"
implementation situation which could not be modeled with the current
Bus_hold model.  The proposed resolution is to add a subparameter to the
[Submodel Spec] keyword.

Because these changes are required to model exisiting devices, it would be
very important to incorporate them in version 3.2 of the IBIS spec.  Since
the changes are relatively minor, it would be desirable to vote on this BIRD
on the December 18, 1998 meeting provided no serious technical issues arise.

BIRD ID#:       57
ISSUE TITLE:    Timed Bus Hold Extension
REQUESTER:      Bob Ross, Mentor Graphics,
                Arpad Muranyi & Stephen Peters, Intel 
DATE SUBMITTED: December 4, 1998
DATE ACCEPTED BY IBIS OPEN FORUM: Pending

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

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE:

A new application of the bus hold functionality involves turning off
(putting in a Hi Z state) the bus hold circuitry after a period of time. 
The Bus_hold submodel can be extended to support this functionality with the
addition of a delay subparameter in the [Submodel Spec] keyword.

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

STATEMENT OF THE RESOLVED SPECIFICATIONS:

The unofficial IBIS Version 3.2 document that includes the BIRD48.4, BIRD49.4 
and BIRD50.3 extensions is used as the basis for showing how BIRD57 would be
implemented.

The original [Submodel Spec] keyword is modified by the addition of a new
subparameter called Off_delay.  The changes are indicated by an asterisk at
the beginning of each line (|*) that it effects.

|============================================================================= 
|     Keyword:  [Submodel Spec]
|    Required:  No
| Description:  The [Submodel Spec] keyword defines four columns under which 
|               specification and information subparameters are defined for 
|               submodels.
|*  Sub-Params:  V_trigger_r, V_trigger_f, Off_delay
|
| Usage Rules:  The [Submodel Spec] is to be used only with submodels.
|
|               The following subparameters are used:
|                 V_trigger_r           Rising edge trigger voltage 
|                 V_trigger_f           Falling edge trigger voltage 
|*                 Off_delay             Turn-off delay from V_trigger_r
|*                                       or V_trigger_f
|*
|               For each subparameter contained in the first column, the
|               remaining three hold its typical, minimum and maximum values. 
|               The entries of typical, minimum and maximum be must be placed 
|               on a single line and must be separated by at least one white 
|               space or tab or tab character.  All four columns are required 
|               under the [Submodel Spec] keyword.  However, data is required 
|               only in the typical column.  If minimum and/or maximum values 
|               are not available, the reserved word "NA" must be used to
|               indicate the typical value by default. 
|
|               The values in the minimum and maximum columns usually
|               correspond to the values in the same columns for the inherited 
|               top-level voltage range or reference voltages in the top-level 
|*               model.  The V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f subparameters 
|*               should hold values in the minimum and maximum columns that 
|*               correspond to the voltage range or reference voltages of the
|*               top-level model.  The Off_delay subparameter, however, is an 
|*               exception to this rule because in some cases it may be 
|*               completely or partially independent from supply voltages 
|*               and/or manufacturing process variations.  Therefore the
|*               minimum and maximum entries for the Off_delay subparameter
|*               should be ordered simply by their magnitude.
|
|               Unless noted, each [Submodel Spec] subparameter is independent 
|               of any other subparameter.
|
|               V_trigger_r, V_trigger_f rules: 
|
|               The voltage trigger values for the rising and falling edges 
|               provide the starting time when an action is initiated.
|
|*               Off_delay rules: 
|*
|*               The functionality of the Off_delay subparameter is to provide
|*               an additional time related mechanism to turn off circuit
|*               elements.
|*

                                                    | pullup turned off
|
|** End of new example

The revised Bus Hold Section shows modifications by |* lines to document the
new Off_delay subparameter and application information including a new
example:

|============================================================================= 
|
| Bus Hold:
|
| When the Submodel_type subparameter under the [Submodel] keyword is set to 
| Bus_hold, the added model describes the bus hold functionality.  However, 
| while described in terms of bus hold functionality, active terminators
| can also be modeled.
|
| Existing keywords and subparameters are used to describe bus hold models. 
| The [Pullup] and [Pulldown] tables both are used to define an internal
| buffer that is triggered switch to its opposite state.  This switching 
| transition is specified by a [Ramp] keyword or by the [Rising Waveform]
| and [Falling Waveform] keywords.  The usage rules for these keywords are the 
| same as under the [Model] keyword.  In particular, at least either the
| [Pullup] or [Pulldown] keyword is required.  Also, the [Ramp] keyword is
| required, even if the [Rising Waveform] and [Falling Waveform] tables exist. 
| However, the voltage ranges and reference voltages are inherited from the
| top-level model.
|
|* For bus hold submodels, the [Submodel Spec] keyword, V_trigger_r, and
|* V_trigger_f are required.  The Off_delay subparameter is optional, but
|* can only be used if the submodel consists of a pullup or a pulldown
|* structure only, and not both.  Devices which have both pullup and pulldown
|* structures controlled in this fashion can be modeled using two submodels,
|* one for each half of the circuit.
|
| The transition is triggered by action at the die using the [Submodel Spec] 
| V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f subparameters as follows:
|
| If the starting voltage is below V_trigger_f, then the bus hold model is
| set to the low state causing additional pulldown current.  If the starting 
| voltage is above V_trigger_r, the bus hold model is set to the high
| state for additional pullup current.  When the input passes though
| V_trigger_f during a high-to-low transition at the die, the bus hold output 
| switches to the low state.  Similarly, when the input passes though
| V_trigger_r during a low-to-high transition at the die, the bus hold output 
| switches to the high state.
|
|* If the bus hold submodel has a pullup structure only, V_trigger_r provides
|* the time when its pullup is turned on and V_trigger_f or Off_delay provides
|* the time when it is turned off, whichever occurs first.  Similarly, if the
|* submodel has a pulldown structure only, V_trigger_f provides the time when
|* its pulldown is turned on and V_trigger_r or Off_delay provides the time
|* when it is turned off, whichever occurs first.  The required V_trigger_r
|* and V_trigger_f voltage entries can be set to values outside of the input
|* signal range if the pullup or pulldown structures are to be held on until
|* the Off_delay turns them off.
|*
|* The starting mode for each of submodels which include the Off_delay
|* subparameter of the [Submodel Spec] keyword is the off state.  Also, while
|* two submodels provide the desired operation, either of the submodels may
|* exist without the other to model turning on and off only a pullup or a
|* pulldown current.
|*
| No additional keywords are needed for this functionality.

ANALYSIS PATH/DATA THAT LED TO SPECIFICATION:

BIRD57 is basically an extension of BIRD50.3.  BIRD50.3 describes a static 
bus hold circuit which is controlled only by the pad voltage of the device.

However, some devices can have the bus hold circuits which are turned on 
by the pad voltage, but are turned off by an internal timer of clock 
signal.  These devices could not be modeled using the BIRD50.3 extensions. 
BIRD57 provides the extension to model such devices.

Several approaches were considered:

  Modify or Enhance the [Driver Schedule] keyword for Input models
    (perhaps including a new keyword)
  Create a new Submodel_type for 'Timed_latch' as a new Submodel extension 
  Enhance the Bus_hold Submodel

The first choice builds upon an older approach versus the newer, preferred 
Submodel approach.  The second choice was considered, but in our discussions 
we would have had to document mew meanings for some transition relationships 
related to a desired Hi-Z mode.

The third choice was selected because the existing Bus Hold description for 
"Open_drain" or Open_source" functionality could be easily extended.  The 
off state of an Open_* device is equivalent to a Hi-Z mode.

Two Submodels are used since the off transition of each of the Submodels 
can be entered by the [Ramp] information or corresponding [Rising Waveform]
or [Falling Waveform] table.  A single Submodel is permitted for just turning 
on and off a pullup or pulldown current.

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

ANY OTHER BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

BIRD57 evolved from discussions between Bob Ross, Arpad Muranyi, and Stephen 
Peters on December 3, 1998 to resolve how IBIS Version 3.2 would handle a 
new active latch that is being implemented in digital buffers.

Subject: circuit origins of the non-monotonic pull-up curve
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline

We got into a discussion the other day about the origin of the
non-monotonic IV curve depicted on p. 20 of the cookbook.  In my mind, the
"output enabled" IV curve should be a sum of the clamp (ESD diode and/or
parasitic well diode) and the FET characteristics.  Therefore, when you
subtract the clamp curve from it, you should get the FET curve, with the
possible exception of some round-off errors.  However, the "hump" you
really see in the pull-up or pull-down curve is much bigger than round-off
error.  Is this easy to explain, or is it fairly subtle?  Where did my
reasoning go wrong?

If this is the "hump" I think you are talking about it accurs from the
subtraction of two really huge currents as they tend toward MAXFLOAT
(sometimes called infinity). We had a big argument and scientific
discussion about this when we were first deciding how to approach this
and there were many little papers and emails sent around. I think that
my final resolution on the matter was, "The hump occurs so far outside
of the active region that the device would have melted anyway so it's
not worth arguing about".

regards,
jon

Seasons Greetings

Hey, the responses back with Logos (esp. usable logos) for the designcon
booth have been really sparse. It is coming fast on the holiday season
and you know you won't get anything done during that time. I don't want
people yelling at me because the only things on the sign at Designcon
are a great big IBIS logo and a great big NEW Viewlogic logo, so get
those things in to me.

Really.

If you are having return mail problems or something please use:
jonp@pacbell.net
I can also be reached by phone at 805 988 8250 if you want to talk about
this. (anyone except kelle) :)

Merriest Wishes !

Jon

Hello Greg, IBIS list:

     Ummm...  this is a place where a picture is worth a thousand 
words, so I will try a little ANSI art.

Ground Clamp Data = *
Pulldown Data     = +
                       (I)
                      |
                      |
                      |   ++++++++++++++++
                      |  +
                      | +
                      |+
            -------**********************  (V)
                  *  +|
                 *  + |
                *  +  |
                * +   |
   point A -->  *     |
                *     |
                      |

 The picture above is an attempt to show a pulldown curve and ground 
clamp curve on the same set of axis.  What I've seen many time is that
at point A, the pulldown curve and the ground clamp become very close to
one another, even converging so that they lie on top of each other.
Physically, I'm not exactly sure what is happening, but apparently
when the pulldown FET starts acting as the clamp diode is stops acting
like a FET.  Note that I've seen this convergence (or near to it) even in
devices that have ESD protection diodes.  Apparently the current in the ESD
structure is small compared with the main clamping action of the
pulldown FET.  At any rate, when you subtract the two curves you end up
with the curve shown in the cookbook.  Hope this helps.

         Regards,
         Stephen Peters

IBIS SUMMIT MEETING
The IBIS Summit Meeting was held at the Shelter Pointe Hotel and Marina in
San Diego, California at the same time as the JEDEC JC-40 and JC-16 meetings.

About 19 people representing 16 organizations participated in the meeting.
The food, refreshments, and the facilities were excellent.  The Minutes here
just briefly note some of the content of the meeting and some discussion.
Some of the presentations and related documents will be uploaded at:

  http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/summits/dec98

 
INTRODUCTIONS AND BUSINESS 
- Bob Ross (Mentor Graphics)
After a delicious buffet lunch for attendees, Bob Ross opened the IBIS meeting
by having the participants introduce themselves.  There appeared to be equal
representation from the IBIS and JEDEC communities.  The semiconductor sector
was more heavily represented than the user and EDA tool vendor sectors.

An underlying theme of this meeting was to introduce and discuss possible new
modeling requirements and needs.  Following this theme, the EIAJ activity on
I/O Interface Model for Integrated Circuits (IMIC) would be discussed because
it had some possible ideas to deal with details that might not be currently
handled well in IBIS.

Bob noted that due to the last minute introduction of BIRD57 on Timed Bus Hold
Extension, we are deferring the vote on IBIS Version 3.2 that had been
scheduled for Friday, December 18, 1998 to the following meeting scheduled on
Friday, January 15, 1999.  That will give us time to review in the December
18, 1998 meeting the pending BIRD56 and BIRD57, initiate possible ibischk3 
changes, and prepare IBIS Version 3.2 for voting with these BIRDs included.

Bob also summarized that the next IBIS Summit Meeting is scheduled on Monday,
February 1, 1998 at DesignCon99 in San Jose.  The EIA IBIS Open Forum is an
Associate Sponsor of DesignCon99 allowing DesignCon99 to provide the meeting
facilities and refreshments.  National Semiconductor will sponsor the
luncheon.  In the past, National had sponsored the whole meeting including
facilities.  Milt Schwartz will be the contact person for signing up meeting
participants and signing up and gathering presentations.  A first notice
should be issued this week.  The focus of that meeting will be on Accuracy 
issues and future IBIS features.  Also, through the Associate Sponsorship 
arrangement, there will be an IBIS booth on the Exhibition floor that will 
provide IBIS information and demonstrate the IBIS User's Group accuracy test 
board measurements.  Jon Powell is the contact person for the booth.

Ad Hoc presentations and discussion topics were solicited:

  Active Terminations - Derek Tsai
  Bus Switches Functionality - Tom Dagostino
  Accuracy Testing of Measurement Based Models - Tom Dagostino
  JEDEC JC-16.2 IBIS Presentation - Bob Ross


PROGRAM NOTES FOLLOW (Scheduled and Ad Hoc Presentations):

INPUT THRESHOLD MODELING
- D.C. Sessions (VLSI Logic)
D.C. Sessions noted that as a result of tighter timing margins, the old input
threshold limits such as Vinh = 2.0 V and Vinl = 0.8 V are becoming too
conservative to be practical.  Input signals can easily have a ledge in the
in the region between Vinh and Vinl.  The actual thresholds are much tighter.
Also JEDEC JC-16.2 is standardizing on closer threshold limits for newer
technologies.

D.C. noted that for many technologies, the Input thresholds were related to
the power supply voltage.  So D.C. suggested a linear adjustment factor that
is related to the rail to determine more accurate thresholds.  Bob Ross
mentioned that this might already exist indirectly using the [Model Spec]
keyword.

D.C. also noted that the timing delay was a function of how much the input
signal went over the first threshold.  D.C. showed some time shifted responses
as a function of threshold overvoltage from 25 mV to about 1.6 V.  The delays
shrank from about 3 ns to 300 ps.  For this particular simulation, D.C.
fit the data to a 2/3rds power relationship:

  t = to + K/(Vin - Vth)**(2/3)

D.C. suggested a timing table could be proposed for IBIS to capture this
input resolution.

To summarize, D.C. presented the following draft proposal:

1) Threshold Voltage
"Add a first-order term to the exiting Vin specs.  DC trip point is defined as
the specified value at the specified supply voltage plus (the new value) times
the difference in supply voltage.  Alternately, add a table.  In effect, turn
the current and scaler values into lists."

2) Timing
"In keeping with IBIS's preferred use of observable properties, add an
[input_delay] table giving relative delay for input voltages relative to the
specified thresholds.  Thus, if Vinl is 800 mV under some condition, the table
entry at 200 mV is the added delay for signals at 1000 mV.  Simulator  
providers would be free to innovate with respect to dynamic algorithms for
complex input waveforms.


OVERVIEW OF JEDEC JC-16 ACTIVITIES 
- Hans Wiggers (Hewlett-Packard and Chair. of JC-16)
Hans Wiggers introduced himself as Chair of the JC-16 group under which there
are two subgroups.  The group is involved with interface topologies.  They
also provide an educational function.

Hans commented that the threshold and input characteristics are of interest.
Also a driver specification consisting of a Max and Min IBIS style table
for bounding values is a current proposal under discussion for memory
devices.

Hans listed a number of standards that the group has been involved with.
Low Performance standards include: TTL, LVTTL, LVCMOS, 2.5 V non-terminated
CMOS, 1.5 V interfaces.  High performance standards include:  GTL, Center
Tap Terminated, (High Speed Transmission Logic) HSTL -1, -2, -3, -4, (Series
Stub Terminated Line) STTL for 3.3 V, now 2.5 V and future 1.5 V.

The best inputs are with a terminator to Vtt = Vddq/2 (the quiescent Vdd
voltage).  Hans showed some network topologies to illustrate this.

One distinction is that JEDEC standardizes parameters that can be put in data
sheets.  Data sheet information is contractual; customers can reject the
components if they do not meet the data sheet specifications.  So there is
a reluctance for very tight parameters which may be hard to test against.

The immediate future activities of JEDEC JC-16 are modifying STTL-2, adding
IBIS-like tables to driver specifications, and specifying LVCMOS for 1.5 V.


ACTIVE TERMINATIONS (Ad Hoc)
- Derek Tsai (Sun Microsystems)
Derek Tsai showed a device/net topology with a switchable termination and
asked whether IBIS Version 3.1 could cover it.  The topology involved a
pullup termination Rup that was active only in the driving mode.  Rup and Rdn
source and load terminations were equal to Zo and were switchable from up
to down states.  It appeared that Rup was disabled only in the receiver mode.  

Derek listed some characteristics:

1.  Back-to-back switching
2.  Rup acts as termination (active) and never turns off until it needs
    to drive "low"
3.  Rdn drive '0'
4.  Fall:  Rup -> Rdn
           Rdn -> Rup and stays on
5.  Problems:  1) transition has glitches, 2) bus contention
    (under work-around simulations)

There was some discussion and clarification.  Bob Ross indicated that pending
IBIS Version 3.2 had submodel parameters both for dynamic clamps and for bus 
hold style circuits.  While Bob thought that the bus hold extensions 
documented in pending IBIS Version 3.2 would model Derek's circuit, 
discussions during a break revealed that perhaps the dynamic clamp in the 
static mode was the appropriate representation.  


SERIES SWITCH EXTENSION (Ad Hoc)
- Tom Dagostino (Mentor Graphics)
Tom Dagostino drew a topology showing nets containing series switches that
were turned on and off to control the connection paths.  Tom asked if the
turning on and off characteristics of the on/off and off/on transitions of
the switch itself were important to model.  Several people responded that they
needed to model such effects.  The series switch extension in IBIS Version 3.1
models only the static on or static off impedances in the path itself, but not
the transition characteristics.


IMIC DISCUSSION
- Bob Ross (Mentor Graphics)
Bob Ross introduced the background of why we are discussing the IMIC activity
at this meeting.  Bob indicated that the IBIS Committee people had been 
following the IMIC activity since February, 1997 through October, 1998 as a
result of several private meetings and several IBIS Summit presentations
on IMIC.  At the London IEC meeting in September, 1998, the request was made
that the IBIS committee work with the I/O Modeling Project group responsible
for IMIC since the activities appeared to overlap.  Bob indicated that there
were subsequent meetings with Dr. Hideki Fukuda in October, 1998 on this
subject and that the topic was appropriate at this meeting since it related
to potential IBIS future extensions.

As an introduction, the IMIC activity had begun in 1996 to extend IBIS 
Version 2.1. The intent was to create extensions to deal with signal
integrity, power integrity (ground and power bounce and SSO simulations), and
EMI simulations.  Also, the extension was needed to deal with emerging
buffer topologies.  Bob noted that IBIS also expanded its capability leading
to IBIS Version 3.X extensions.  However, there could be limitations to the
IBIS behavioral approach that could be solved by IMIC and SPICE approaches.

Bob summarized the IMIC approach both in his presentation and copies of
slides provided by Fukuda-san.  IMIC formats Modules (similar to IBIS EBD),
ICs (Similar to IBIS Components and Models), and Packages (similar to IBIS
Packages).  However, IMIC supports a SPICE netlist syntax plus some IBIS
wrapper keywords.  IMIC also introduces a table SPICE representation of
MOSFET, Diode and Bipolar devices that allows process information to remain
proprietary.  The models can be complex as shown by 1D (corresponding to IBIS,
2D and 3D samples.  However, there could be efficiencies associated with
scaling the buffers rather than providing different models for each physical
geometry variation.

Bob noted that IMIC does not include some specification and informational 
details contained in the IBIS format that are used by many simulators used for
digital circuit board design and analysis.  Such information includes model
type (e.g., Input, Output, I/O, etc.), threshold specifications, timing test
loads, and some connection information documenting differential I/O pin
connections, power rail pin connections, etc.  

Bob outlined some IBIS/IMIC approaches:

  Merge IBIS and IMIC
  Link from IBIS to IMIC features of interest
  Keep IBIS and IMIC separate, but provide IMIC to IBIS translation paths

There are practical and business advantages and disadvantages to each of these
approaches.  The most interesting is to explore Linkage to the package
extensions and to the buffer formulations.  These also relate to possible
SPICE linkages and to both Table Spice and BSIM Version 3.2.2 extensions
being standardized by the Compact Modeling Council.  Bob noted one novel
feature of the IMIC format is that it might be possible to format typical,
minimum and maximum package characteristics in the same document.  Bob was
interested in accuracy validation of the table SPICE approach, and this
is a subject in the next presentation.

An IBIS committee study group consists of Stephen Peters, Raj Raghuram, Norio
Matsui, and Bob Ross.  Others are welcome to join.  The EIAJ group will also
have a small group for interaction.

In the subsequent discussion, Syed Huq pointed out the IMIC is not an
officially approved standard - it is still in draft mode and has not gone
through official acceptance processes.  In contrast, IBIS is an approved
ANSI/EIA standard.


VALIDATION OF EIAJ IMIC MODELS
- Raj Raghuram (Applied Simulation Technology)
Raj Raghuram also presented an overview of IMIC using selected copies of older
presentations.  The multi-dimension table format is an extension of Berkeley
SPICE.  The approach is supported by several commercial SPICE simulators, and
the tables can be automatically generated by 3D DC sweeps and selecting the
options to print capacitances at each point.  With generic SPICE, more 
analysis work is needed by doing AC analysis at each operation point to
extract capacitances.

The validation process was to generate a Table SPICE model from a driver
SPICE model, and then compare the simulation results of each under the
same set of test loads.

Example 1 used the Motorola 74LCX245 low voltage CMOS Octal transceiver
model as the basis.  Simulations were done with these driving parameters:
1 ns Tr, 1 ns delay, 9 ns pulse width.  The results were compared with 
these test circuit loads:  500 ohms and 5 pF to ground, 50 ohms to ground,
50 ohms to Vcc (3 V), and 500 ohms terminating a 50 ohm and 1 ns transmission
line.  All of the results showed very similar waveform shapes when overlayed.
There was a slight delay mismatch, but Raj considered that a problem based
on low Table SPICE resolution.  He did not have time to investigate and
provide refinements to this skew in results or to investigate the effects of
3D to 2D model simplifications.

Example 2 compared a Texas Instruments CBT16233 with a Table SPICE
formulation.  The device was loaded with a 1 kiloohm and 5 pF at the end of a
65 ohm and 1 nS transmission line.  Excellent, overlaying response was shown
between the orignal SPICE model simulation and table SPICE models generated
from Applied Simulation Technology and HSPICE simulators.

Raj concluded that the correlation was good and that the IMIc model is a
viable SPICE-like alternative that protects proprietary process information.


ACCURACY TESTING OF MEASUREMENT BASED MODELS
- Tom Dagostino (Mentor Graphics)
Tom Dagostino raised the question and led the discussion on what is needed to 
test the accuracy of measurement based models.  A number of points were made
relating to accuracy and to what should be included in a measurement based
model are captured here.

One point is that measurement based models document actual characteristics
of the device.  However, since it was not known whether that device was
really typical, the scaling of the device data for min and max characteristics
should be left to the simulator tool.  It should not be given in the model.
D.C. Sessions was interested in a range for different processes.

Tom indicated that measurements could be done on a number of devices from
the same vendor for different lots over time to get a statistical spread.
Milt Schwartz and others indicated that sometimes the fabrication lab does
not have the process skew information.  Furthermore, there is a reluctance
to provide too tight of information which will result in being forced to 
guarantee tighter information in the data sheet.  So the documentation of
lots was becoming less rigorous.

Tom asked if it were valid to test different devices from a same technology 
from the same vendor, and several people stated that this was not valid since 
even with what is documented as the same family, the actual devices may have 
different characteristics and come from different processes or die sizes.  So 
it was not a defendable practice to infer that different characteristics were 
related to min and max variations.

Regarding test and extraction conditions, Chris Rokusek and other people
stressed that capturing the information based on the IBIS Cookbook conditions
of 50 ohms to ground and to Vcc and testing against those conditions was a
preferred approach.  There might be some exceptions, but even if the voltage
swing is not full scale, the model was still tuned to the actual transmission
line connections that need to be simulated.  Other test loads could be
included in the IBIS model for the purposes of validating the model, although
few people are doing this.  Examples of a validation load are connection of
50 ohms to Vcc/2 and using some capacitive loads.

D.C. Sessions commented that he expected that the contributions of process
variation, temperature variations (over a 0 degrees C to 125 degrees C) and
a 10 percent voltage variation to have about equal contribution effects.
So if IBIS models are extracted from measurements under simultaneous voltage 
and temperature variations, it might be defendable to infer the process
variation effect by some additional scaling by 1/2.

Chris indicated classified accurate models as

  Level 0: ramp based
  Level 1: one waveform based (one rising, one falling)
  Level 2: two waveform based (two rising, two falling)

Chris felt that the Level 0 and Level 1 models were of comparable accuracy,
and Level 2 models provide a great improvement.  D.C. pointed out that the
two waveform extraction provided both the turn on and turn off characteristics
needed for the complete characterization.  Chis noted that the 50 ohm load
provided a better load line for actual operating conditions.  D.C. mentioned
that the 50 ohm extraction took into account the buffer Miller capacitance
that affects the response.

IBIS PRESENTATION AT THE JEDEC JC-16 MEETING (Ad Hoc)
- Bob Ross (Mentor Graphics)
Bob Ross indicated that Stephen Peters had been scheduled to do a presentation 
both at the IBIS Summit Meeting and also at the JEDEC JC-16 meeting, but he
was unable to attend.  So we needed to draft a presentation for the next day
JEDEC meeting.  D.C. Sessions provided some general guidelines, and the action
was to work out presentation details at a dinner gathering with those people
who would attend the JEDEC meeting.

(Bob Ross and Chris Rokusek created a mostly hand-drawn IBIS Overview and 
Simulation presentation for the JEDEC Meeting on Tuesday, December 8, 1998.  
Several other IBIS committee participants attended.  The presentation 
appeared to be well-received and prompted several questions.  As an action 
item D.C. Session was asked to chair a JEDEC JC- 42 and JC-16 Task Group on 
Formation of IBIS Models.  Initially people from Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Xilinx, 
Western Digital, United Memories, Micron, and Samsung joined this Task Group.  
Participation is also open to IBIS Committee participants.  Contact D.C. 
Sessions to join.)


NEXT MEETING:
The next teleconference meeting will be on Friday, December 18, 1998 from 
8:00 AM to 10:00 AM.  BIRD56 and BIRD57 are scheduled for votes.

Maybe it's the common series resistance in series with both the ground
clamp and the pulldown FET?

Once the clamp current is big enough so that the series resistance
dominates, turning on the pulldown won't add much additional current
anymore.

HI, sir:
   I am a learner of XTK. I have some questions about XTK 
 and I hope you can give me an answer quickly.
1. What is the maximum frequency that XTK can analyze properly?
2. Could XTK be used to analyze the skin effect ? 
   if so,which parameter describe the degree of the skin effect?
3. I have performed a system level simulation with ISF2XTK. 
   I use a *.mxf file to match a model to a connector. When analyzed the net
  including the connector, XNS reported some errors such as :
  <a>Could not find model name matching JB8-1O2_TO_SON_3: U10_27
     may be encrypted model.
  And,  XNS do not use the connector model I defined,but 
  use the default connector model, what can I do with it?
4. When I translate IBIS MODEL into XTK with IBIS2XTK , the program 
   IBIS2XTK did not report any errors.But when analyze,XNS reported 
   some errors such as :
   <b>pin name no found for part son_3: c83 2 . This prevents package 
     capacitance connection.
   And package parameter has not been loaded  by the program XNS .
5. How to get the *.xf3 file which used as input file for program XFX3D?

Hi,

Because of some legal complications that some companies have raised I
have decided to making the following offer (good for a limited time).

If you provide me with a finished company logo sign we can stick it on
the booth together!!

This means either send me the finished thing or bring it to Supercon.
I will even have Velcro(c) for you!!!

catches:

1) Sign MUST be NO larger 8.5X11 (inches) .
that is, it must fit on a standard 8.5x11 inch piece of paper. It can be
smaller but cannot exceed any dimension (ie. No 6 x 20 logos).

2) The sign may contain ONLY your logo and any official company tag that
usually goes with the logo.
(ie. no product specific verbiage).

3) The sign must be mounted on something firm enough that I can add
Velcro(c) backing.

If it does not meet these exacting standards, we won't put it on the
booth. These rules are to insure fairness, not because I'm an SOB.

SPECIAL NOTE: If you have already sent me a logo file and want me to
continue to do the work for you, I will. However, if you want to provide
you own just so you know how it will look before hand, just let me know.
My goal here is to make it as easy as possible for everyone who wants to
to be represented.

regards,
jon

Subject: Characterization Conditions
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

I have read with interest the latest version of the
IBIS cookbook.  It details recommended characterization
conditions for simulating TTL, ECL, LVCMOS, etc.  It 
does not contain recommended conditions for measuring
newer I/Os, i.e. SSTL, HSTL, GTL, LVDS.

What are the recommended simulation conditions for these
I/Os?

Hello Rob:

   By "recommended characterization conditions" I assume you mean
the output loads/voltages use to extract V/T waveforms.  Because the
GTL/GTL+ outputs are open-drain, I would extract the V/T waveforms
using the rules for open drain buffers -- a load resistor to 
Vterm, with the value of Rterm and Vterm determined by the 
specification or part manufacturer.  As for the other standards,
if the driver uses a standard push/pull structure use the rules for 
standard CMOS or TTL (depending on the technology of the buffer).  
Remember: by taking the V/T waveforms with a load tied
to Vcc then to ground, one can isolate the turn-on, turn-off and 
overlap times of the pullup and pulldown structures, thereby allowing
the simulator to construct an accurate model of the driver.  This
model should be accurate, even if the driver application calls for
the output to be terminated to Vcc/2, or series terminated, or whatever.

          Regards,

Hello Ibisians,

  This came up in a conversation recently and I did not
know the answer.  
How do you describe a loop in a trace layout with the
[Path Description] in a .EBD file?

For example:
Pin 1
*
*
****
*  *
****
*
*
Pin 2


[Path Description] LOOP
Pin 1
Len = 1.0 L = 1.0n C= 2.0p / 
 Fork
 Len = 1.0 L = 1.0n C= 2.0p /
 Len = 1.0 L = 1.0n C= 2.0p /
 Len = 1.0 L = 1.0n C= 2.0p 
 Endfork
|
|now what do I do to close the loop?
|
Len = 1.0 L = 1.0n C= 2.0p /
Pin 2

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your prompt reply!  

After reading your response, and giving it some more thought,
it looks like SSTL and HSTL should use the same methodology
given in Table 1 for CMOS (from the 2.0X version of the Cookbook).

In practise, not all boards will use 50 Ohm loads.  How sensitive
are the IBIS models to termination resistance?  I would expect
this to be significant.

Regards,
Rob Eccles

Rob,

In the case of a classic GTL driver (which uses feedback), you may also
want to sweep the resistance to Vtt (Rterm) over its effective operational
range.  Then compare behavioral simulation waveforms against SPICE
waveforms and see how close you can get.  I found that the simulator I was
using wasn't able to track SPICE very well.  I've been told that multiple
VT tables for different values for Rterm is one approach to solving the
"GTL feedback behavioral modeling problem," but I've never actually heard
the circuit theory behind this.

I guess all I'm saying is run some SPICE vs. behavioral correlation and
"model developer beware..."

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your prompt reply!

After reading your response, and giving it some more thought,
it looks like SSTL and HSTL should use the same methodology
given in Table 1 for CMOS (from the 2.0X version of the Cookbook).

In practise, not all boards will use 50 Ohm loads.  How sensitive
are the IBIS models to termination resistance?  I would expect
this to be significant.

Regards,

Kellee,

The Fork/Endfork notation implements what is commonly called a
Directed Acyclic Graph. The key term here is "acyclic", meaning
you can not have loops. Notations that allow loops, like SPICE,
almost always do so by naming the nodes so that multiple references
into a node are accepted.

Hi Mike, all,

Thanks for the reply.

  Unless some disagrees I would like to consider a Bird to
correct this problem.
The problem I see is that the node property can not be
anything other than a component.  We could add another
property that is a non-component interconnect and fix this.

best wishes...
Kellee

Could a zero ohm resistor be used to bridge the gap in the current spec?

Rob,

Many simulators are interested in using results of driving the TRACE
IMPEDANCE seen by the driver which is where the 50 came from.  Vaguely
speaking--using the range of the DC V-I curves exercised by the VT loading
conditions together with the AC waveform data as inputs, the driver may then
be applied to arbitrary loads (termination, capacitance, diodes, ...) in
simulation to produce accurate results.

So as long as the load is near (e.g. within .25X to 4X) the impedance that
the driver sees during switching, simulation results should be nearly
identical for most devices.

DISCLAIMER: Simulators are not required to use the waveform data in any
particular manner so the above may not be true for all simulators.  However
the cookbook recommendations were developed under consensus of simulator
companies on the IBIS committee.

Regards,

Chris Rokusek

Hi Scott, Will,

I think you and Will both suggested the 0 ohm resistor
approach.  Sounds like it will work to me and I hate
changing the spec.

At 01:16 PM 12/18/98 -0800, you wrote:

Our simulator has no problem with loops.  They are stable and
you can have an infinite number of them.

>Loops are ugly, anyway.  My manufacturing engineers

I agree, but many boards do have them.


Thanks for the feedback.
Have a happy holiday!

BIRD ID#:       56.1
ISSUE TITLE:    Relaxation of [Series Pin Mapping] Restriction
REQUESTER:      Bob Ross, Mentor Graphics
DATE SUBMITTED: November 25, 1998, December 18, 1998
DATE ACCEPTED BY IBIS OPEN FORUM: December 18, 1998

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

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE:

[Series Pin Mapping] specifies connection only to Terminator or NC pins.
This restricts using the Series elements for other purposes such as providing
an internal differential termination to a differential input or output.

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

STATEMENT OF THE RESOLVED SPECIFICATIONS:

In the [Series Pin Mapping] keyword below, the suggested change is shown
in the revised paragraph that is bracketed by |* lines:


|=============================================================================
|     Keyword:  [Series Pin Mapping]
|    Required:  No
| Description:  Used to associate two pins joined by a series model.
|  Sub-Params:  pin_2, model_name, function_table_group
| Usage Rules:  Enter only series pin pairs.  The first column, [Series Pin
|               Mapping], contains the series pin for which input impedances
|               are measured.  The second column, pin_2, contains the other
|               connection of the series model.  Each pin must match the pin
|               names declared previously in the [Pin] section of the IBIS
|               file.  The third column, model_name, associates the Series or
|               Series_switch model for the pair of pins in the first two 
|               columns.  The fourth column, function_table_group, contains
|               an alphanumeric designator string to associate those sets of
|               Series_switch pins that are switched together.
|
|               Each line must contain either three or four columns.  When
|               using four columns, the header function_table_group must be
|               listed.  
|
|               One possible application is to model crossbar switches where
|               the straight through On paths are indicated by one designator
|               and the cross over On paths are indicated by another
|               designator.  If the model referenced is a Series model, then
|               the function_table_group entry is omitted.
| 
|               Column length limits are:
|                  [Series Pin Mapping]       5 characters max
|                  pin_2                      5 characters max
|                  model_name                20 characters max
|                  function_table_group      20 characters max
|
| Other Notes:  If the model_name is for a non-symmetrical series model, 
|               then the order of the pins is important.  The [Series Pin
|               Mapping] and pin_2 entries must be in the columns that
|               correspond with Pin 1 and Pin 2 of the referenced model.
|
|               This mapping covers only the series paths between pins.  The
|               package parasitics and any other elements such as additional
|               capacitance or clamping circuitry are defined by the
|               model_name that is referenced in the [Pin] keyword.  The
|               model_names under the [Pin] keyword that are also referenced
|               by the [Series Pin Mapping] keyword must be either 'NC' or
|               reference a [Model] whose Model_type is 'Terminator'.  Thus.
|               for example, a Series_switch model may contain Terminator
|               models on EACH of the pins to describe both the capacitance
|               on each pin and some clamping circuitry that may exist on
|               each pin.
|
|

|* Replace the above Paragraph with this Paragraph:

|               This mapping covers only the series paths between pins.  The
|               package parasitics and any other elements such as additional
|               capacitance or clamping circuitry are defined by the
|               model_name that is referenced in the [Pin] keyword.  The
|               model_names under the [Pin] keyword that are also referenced
|               by the [Series Pin Mapping] keyword may include any legal
|**               model or reserved model except for Series and Series_switch
|               models.  Normally the pins will reference a [Model] whose
|               Model_type is 'Terminator'.  For example, a Series_switch
|               model may contain Terminator models on EACH of the pins to
|               describe both the capacitance on each pin and some clamping
|               circuitry that may exist on each pin.  In a similar manner,
|               Input, I/O or Output models may exist on each pin of a Series
|               model that is serving as a differential termination.

ANALYSIS PATH/DATA THAT LED TO SPECIFICATION:

BIRD41.8 discusses some background for the initial restriction in its 
ANALYSIS ... section.  In particular, the evolution through BIRD41.3 and
BIRD41.4 documents that simplicity was the original reason for restricting
the connecting pins of [Series Pin Mapping] to Terminators and NC.  It was
also left as a simulator specific extension that POWER or GND Pins could also
be used.  (See http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/birds and select BIRD41.8.)

The fact that Input, Output, and I/O pins were excluded meant that the
series element could not be used to provide differential connections
between pins.  BIRD56 fixes this problem.

Because legal reserved words are permitted, any of the pins may be connected
to POWER, GND or NC pins, as needed.

The major argument for relaxing the restriction is that some of these
extended cases permit additional practical connection configurations.
There was not a technical reason for maintaining the restriction.

BIRD56.1 has some editorial changes approved at the meeting.  The language
"reserved word" was changed to "reserved model" since one reserved word
"NA" is not included.  "Reserved model" is defined in Section 3 to include
only POWER, GND, and NC, as intended.


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

ANY OTHER BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

IBIS reflector discussion between October 7 - 12, 1998 discussed this issue.
Chris Rokusek in response to some discussions with Arpad Muranyi raised the
original clarification question and also supported a BIRD which would
relax the restriction.

At the November 20, 1998 IBIS meeting, this issue was discussed.  The action
was to issue this BIRD for further discussion and resolution.

BIRD ID#:       57.1
ISSUE TITLE:    Timed Bus Hold Extension
REQUESTER:      Bob Ross, Mentor G., Arpad Muranyi & Stephen Peters, Intel 
DATE SUBMITTED: December 4, 1998, December 18, 1998
DATE ACCEPTED BY IBIS OPEN FORUM: December 18, 1998

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

STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE:

A new application of the bus hold functionality involves turning off
(putting in a Hi Z state) the bus hold circuitry after a period of time. 
The Bus_hold submodel can be extended to support this functionality with the
addition of a delay subparameter in the [Submodel Spec] keyword.

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

STATEMENT OF THE RESOLVED SPECIFICATIONS:

The unofficial IBIS Version 3.2 document that includes the BIRD48.4, BIRD49.4 
and BIRD50.3 extensions is used as the basis for showing how BIRD57 would be
implemented.

The original [Submodel Spec] keyword is modified by the addition of a new
subparameter called Off_delay.  The changes are indicated by an asterisk at
the beginning of each line (|*) that it effects.

|============================================================================= 
|     Keyword:  [Submodel Spec]
|    Required:  No
| Description:  The [Submodel Spec] keyword defines four columns under which 
|               specification and information subparameters are defined for 
|               submodels.
|*  Sub-Params:  V_trigger_r, V_trigger_f, Off_delay
|
| Usage Rules:  The [Submodel Spec] is to be used only with submodels.
|
|               The following subparameters are used:
|                 V_trigger_r           Rising edge trigger voltage 
|                 V_trigger_f           Falling edge trigger voltage 
|*                 Off_delay             Turn-off delay from V_trigger_r
|*                                       or V_trigger_f
|*
|               For each subparameter contained in the first column, the
|               remaining three hold its typical, minimum and maximum values. 
|               The entries of typical, minimum and maximum be must be placed 
|               on a single line and must be separated by at least one white 
|**               space or tab character.  All four columns are required 
|               under the [Submodel Spec] keyword.  However, data is required 
|               only in the typical column.  If minimum and/or maximum values 
|               are not available, the reserved word "NA" must be used to
|               indicate the typical value by default. 
|
|               The values in the minimum and maximum columns usually
|               correspond to the values in the same columns for the inherited 
|               top-level voltage range or reference voltages in the top-level 
|*               model.  The V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f subparameters 
|*               should hold values in the minimum and maximum columns that 
|*               correspond to the voltage range or reference voltages of the
|*               top-level model.  The Off_delay subparameter, however, is an 
|*               exception to this rule because in some cases it may be 
|*               completely or partially independent from supply voltages 
|*               and/or manufacturing process variations.  Therefore the
|*               minimum and maximum entries for the Off_delay subparameter
|*               should be ordered simply by their magnitude.
|
|               Unless noted, each [Submodel Spec] subparameter is independent 
|               of any other subparameter.
|
|               V_trigger_r, V_trigger_f rules: 
|
|               The voltage trigger values for the rising and falling edges 
|               provide the starting time when an action is initiated.
|
|*               Off_delay rules: 
|*
|*               The functionality of the Off_delay subparameter is to provide
|*               an additional time related mechanism to turn off circuit
|*               elements.

                                                    | pullup turned off
|
|**** End of new example

The revised Bus Hold Section shows modifications by |* lines to document the
new Off_delay subparameter and application information including a new
example:

|============================================================================= 
|
| Bus Hold:
|
| When the Submodel_type subparameter under the [Submodel] keyword is set to 
| Bus_hold, the added model describes the bus hold functionality.  However, 
| while described in terms of bus hold functionality, active terminators
| can also be modeled.
|
| Existing keywords and subparameters are used to describe bus hold models. 
| The [Pullup] and [Pulldown] tables both are used to define an internal
| buffer that is triggered switch to its opposite state.  This switching 
| transition is specified by a [Ramp] keyword or by the [Rising Waveform]
| and [Falling Waveform] keywords.  The usage rules for these keywords are the 
| same as under the [Model] keyword.  In particular, at least either the
| [Pullup] or [Pulldown] keyword is required.  Also, the [Ramp] keyword is
| required, even if the [Rising Waveform] and [Falling Waveform] tables exist. 
| However, the voltage ranges and reference voltages are inherited from the
| top-level model.
|
|* For bus hold submodels, the [Submodel Spec] keyword, V_trigger_r, and
|* V_trigger_f are required.  The Off_delay subparameter is optional, but
|* can only be used if the submodel consists of a pullup or a pulldown
|* structure only, and not both.  Devices which have both pullup and pulldown
|* structures controlled in this fashion can be modeled using two submodels,
|* one for each half of the circuit.
|
| The transition is triggered by action at the die using the [Submodel Spec] 
| V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f subparameters as follows:
|
| If the starting voltage is below V_trigger_f, then the bus hold model is
| set to the low state causing additional pulldown current.  If the starting 
| voltage is above V_trigger_r, the bus hold model is set to the high
| state for additional pullup current.  When the input passes though
| V_trigger_f during a high-to-low transition at the die, the bus hold output 
| switches to the low state.  Similarly, when the input passes though
| V_trigger_r during a low-to-high transition at the die, the bus hold output 
| switches to the high state.
|
|* If the bus hold submodel has a pullup structure only, V_trigger_r provides
|* the time when its pullup is turned on and V_trigger_f or Off_delay provides
|* the time when it is turned off, whichever occurs first.  Similarly, if the
|* submodel has a pulldown structure only, V_trigger_f provides the time when
|* its pulldown is turned on and V_trigger_r or Off_delay provides the time
|* when it is turned off, whichever occurs first.  The required V_trigger_r
|* and V_trigger_f voltage entries can be set to values outside of the input
|* signal range if the pullup or pulldown structures are to be held on until
|* the Off_delay turns them off.
|*
|** The starting mode for each of the submodels which include the Off_delay
|* subparameter of the [Submodel Spec] keyword is the off state.  Also, while
|* two submodels provide the desired operation, either of the submodels may
|** exist without the other to simulate turning on and off only a pullup or a
|* pulldown current.
|*
| No additional keywords are needed for this functionality.

ANALYSIS PATH/DATA THAT LED TO SPECIFICATION:

BIRD57 is basically an extension of BIRD50.3.  BIRD50.3 describes a static 
bus hold circuit which is controlled only by the pad voltage of the device.

However, some devices can have the bus hold circuits which are turned on 
by the pad voltage, but are turned off by an internal timer of clock 
signal.  These devices could not be modeled using the BIRD50.3 extensions. 
BIRD57 provides the extension to model such devices.

Several approaches were considered:

  Modify or Enhance the [Driver Schedule] keyword for Input models
    (perhaps including a new keyword)
  Create a new Submodel_type for 'Timed_latch' as a new Submodel extension 
  Enhance the Bus_hold Submodel

The first choice builds upon an older approach versus the newer, preferred 
Submodel approach.  The second choice was considered, but in our discussions 
we would have had to document mew meanings for some transition relationships 
related to a desired Hi-Z mode.

The third choice was selected because the existing Bus Hold description for 
"Open_drain" or Open_source" functionality could be easily extended.  The 
off state of an Open_* device is equivalent to a Hi-Z mode.

Two Submodels are used since the off transition of each of the Submodels 
can be entered by the [Ramp] information or corresponding [Rising Waveform]
or [Falling Waveform] table.  A single Submodel is permitted for just turning 
on and off a pullup or pulldown current.

BIRD57.1 is issued with some minor editoral changes captured at the December 
18, 1998 IBIS meeting.

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

ANY OTHER BACKGROUND INFORMATION:

BIRD57 evolved from discussions between Bob Ross, Arpad Muranyi, and Stephen 
Peters on December 3, 1998 to resolve how IBIS Version 3.2 would handle a 
new active latch that is being implemented in digital buffers.

None.


INTERNATIONAL/EXTERNAL PROGRESS
- IEC 62014-1 (IBIS Version 2.1) - No report.

- pr EIAJ ED-5302 Standard for I/O Interface Model for Integrated Circuits
  (IMIC) - Bob Ross reported that IMIC topics were discussed at the IBIS
  Summit Meeting on December 7, 1998.

- IEC 93/67/NP IBIS and EMC Simulation - Bob Ross reports that although the
  task group is operating at zero level, Jean-Claude Perrin reports that he
  will present the document to IEC Central Office as an official document
  during the TC77 (all EMC domains) meeting in Geneva.  Jean-Claude reported
  a meeting was held and the plan is to write a short file in an IBIS format
  for a future buffer.  This work is funded by Texas instruments and sponsored 
  by a French university.  The work is expected to be completed by the end of
  1999, but an initial, work in progress document is expected to be made
  available for review in two to three months.  Bob indicated that he would 
  put the work in the work in progress area.

- JC-16.2 Subcommittee: Modeling and Test - Bob Ross noted that the co-located
  JEDEC JC-16.2 and IBIS Meeting will be discussed below.

- IEEE P1537 Electronic Data Format Project (Previously listed as the Standard
  Component Data Sheet) - Stephen Peters had no further report.
  

IBIS (EAST) USERS GROUP MEETINGS
Bob Haller stated that no formal IBIS Users Group meetings have occurred.
However, the Connector Committee is meeting regularly and continuing its work.
Also the Accuracy Committee is continuing its work on the draft Accuracy
Specification document via regular teleconference meetings held on every other
Friday on dates that do not conflict with the IBIS Open Forum meeting dates.
The plan is to open up these meetings to everyone after DesignCon99.  Bob
noted that the Accuracy Committee is interested in what is needed for formal
EIA approval.  Bob Ross will talk to Bob Haller off line on some of the steps.
The immediate Committee goals are to finalize the trailer document format 
before DesignCon99 and to focus on DesignCon99 preparation.


JEDEC/IBIS DECEMBER 7, 1998 SUMMIT MEETING (REVIEW)
Bob Ross commented that it was beneficial to meet several active JEDEC members
from semiconductor vendors who are interested in IBIS activities.  Along with
several planned presentations, we had several good ad hoc presentations and
discussions.

Bob and Chris Rokusek did an ad hoc presentation at the JEDEC committee which
appears to have been well received.

Added note - the IBIS Summit documents, including several presentations, are 
uploaded at

  http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/summits/dec98


DESIGNCON99 FEBRUARY 1, 1999 SUMMIT MEETING
Bob Ross summarized the activity to date that the IBIS Open Forum is an
Associate Sponsor of DesignCon99.  As a result, DesignCon99 is providing
a meeting room, refreshments, and a booth at the exhibition.  National
Semiconductor will be a co-sponsor and provide the buffet lunch.  Milt 
Schwartz will be handling the local logistics including signup, collecting and 
copying the presentations that are submitted beforehand.  The first call for
participation has been sent out.

Bob Haller noted that the Accuracy Committee will provide a small demo at the
booth.  Hewlett-Packard has agreed to supply equipment for capturing 
waveforms and for taking TDR measurements.

Bob noted that Jon Powell is the focal point for logistics.  Based on 
reflector email, Jon will accept company logos directly on velcro backed
8-1/2 by 11 inch placards.


DATE99 MARCH 9, 1999 SUMMIT MEETING
Bob Ross stated that the meeting time had been moved from Friday, March 12,
1999 to Tuesday, March 9, 1999 to avoid conflict with the trade show.  At
the DATE98 show in Paris, the IBIS meeting was scheduled on Friday to avoid
such conflict.  At this years show in Munich, the DATE99 trade show is from
Wednesday through Friday.

Bob noted and Olaf Rethmeier confirmed that INCASES will be a co-sponsor.  Bob
will work offline with others concerning additional co-sponsorship.  Bob also
expects to get initial information out in early January, 1999.


VERSION 3.2 PARSER DEVELOPMENT
Bob Ross indicated that he communicated the BIRD55 change regarding adding
a Vmeas subparameter to the [Model Spec] keyword to Atul Agarwal, and Atul 
will make the ibischk3 change.  

Matthew Flora had commented that some minor corrections were needed so that
that ibischk3 would compile with GNU and Microsoft compilers without warnings.
For example, some comparisons between unsigned integers and signed integers
ought to be fixed.  Matthew stated that these minor changes were not yet sent
to Atul.  Matthew wanted Atul to continue with higher priority functional
changes and the minor corrections to eliminate warnings could be made later.
Bob indicated that those changes could be included in the next revision of the
accepted parser.

Matthew indicated that he received good response to a note he sent to the
parser distribution list inviting those who were not on the
ibischk-bug@eda.org "reflector" to join.  People on that list will be
receiving the latest bug reports, details, and questions on ibischk3
development.

Bob stated that he uploaded ver3_2e.ibs in the work in progress directory
with BIRD55 included.  He expected to upload ver3_2f.ibs based on how BIRD56
and BIRD57 are resolved later in this meeting.


TEKTRONIX IPA 510 SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION PROPOSAL
Bob Ross moved this discussion to the end of the meeting to allow time for
dealing with the scheduled technical issues.


COOKBOOK STATUS
(Not Discussed)


IBIS MODEL REVIEW COMMITTEE DISCUSSION
Matthew Flora reported that he distributed a Texas Instruments Version 2.1
level LVDS IBIS model with for review.  The old AR remains.

AR - Matthew Flora to issue to the IBIS reflector a short write-up on the IBIS
Model Review Committee.


BIRD56 - RELAXATION OF THE [Series Pin Mapping] RESTRICTION
Bob Ross introduced BIRD56 for discussion and vote.  Matthew Flora wanted an
example showing the expanded functionality.  Arpad Muranyi promised an example
from a model which provided the original motivation for BIRD56.  Bob also
indicated the he might provide an example using a Series element as a 
differential termination.

AR - Arpad Muranyi provide an IBIS model example for BIRD56.

There was some discussion indicating that removing the original limitation
was motivated by practical considerations with real devices.  The original
limitation was not based on any technical need, but on consistency with the
terminator models.  Matthew suggested changing "reserved words" to "reserved
models" since the reserved word "NA" was not intended to be included in the 
list.  Matthew showed in Section 3 (General Syntax Rules and Guidelines), that
item 2) documents this distinction.  Bob accepted this change (thereby
incrementing BIRD56 to BIRD56.1).  A vote was taken.

BIRD56.1 was approved unanimously with one abstention.

AR - Bob Ross produce BIRD56.1 with the agreed upon editorial corrections.


BIRD57 - TIMED BUS HOLD EXTENSION
Arpad Muranyi introduced the recently submitted BIRD57 by indicating that a
current implementation of the bus hold submodel has the model turn off using
an internal timer or external trigger signal.  The "Off_delay" parameter 
provides the additional functionality to deal with this capability.

Bob Ross added that the bus hold functionality has been expanded in practice
to include a high-Z mode.  Since transitions from an on state to/from a high-Z 
state is not included in any current IBIS model time transitions for totem
pole topologies, an alternative way is suggested in practice.  The Open_drain
(Open_sink) and Open_source configurations can each be viewed as transitioning
from an on state to a high-Z state.  An Open_source and Open_sink submodels
can be used together to describe transitions from high-Z, both from a low and
high state.  Arpad clarified that when the Off_delay is defined, it is for a
submodel with either just a [Pullup] table (for Open_source mode) or a
[Pulldown] table (for Open_sink mode).

Arpad stated that both V_trigger_r and V_trigger_f are required,  So the
switching can occur either due to the signal at the input pad switching or
due to reaching the Off_delay time, which ever comes first.  If the trigger
voltage is out of range, then it will not be used.  Or if the Off_delay
is set to a very long value, the timed mode will be disabled.

Mike Lebonte asked for clarification regarding when the Off_delay begins.  
Arpad clarified that it begins when the signal at the input pad crosses the
trigger threshold.

Matthew Flora had two editorial changes to remove a redundant "tab" statement
and to add a missing "the" word.  Bob had an editorial change from using the
the verb "model" to the verb "simulate".  These changes were accepted and 
caused BIRD57 to be incremented to BIRD57.1.

Mike suggested that Off_delay be made more specific and refer to it being
referenced from a trigger voltage rather than an external clock.  After 
further discussion we decided on no change.  Rather, if the functionality were
to be enhanced in the future to include a different delay mode, the new
subparameter would have a more detailed name.

Mike also asked for guidance on how the min and max column entries are
defined.  Bob found that this was discussed in BIRD57.  The general guidance
is to enter the values based on absolute min and max delays.  The columns of
the Off_delay subparameter do not correlate with process corners or voltages
directly.  There is a similar lack of correlation with C_comp.  So Off_delay
and C_comp are unique subparameters under [Submodel] and [Model] because they
are entered based on magnitude rather than by association with [Voltage Range]
or voltage reference values like all of the other subparameters.

After this discussion, Bob called for a vote on BIRD57.1.

BIRD57.1 was approved unanimously with one abstention.

AR - Bob Ross produce BIRD57.1 with the agreed editorial corrections.


VERSION 3.2 RATIFICATION PREPARATION
Bob Ross indicated that all of the open BIRDs have been resolved.  We should 
plan for a ratification vote at the next meeting (scheduled on January 15, 
1999).  A number of activities will take place.  BIRD56.1 and BIRD57.1 will be 
uploaded.  The unofficial work in progress document will be incremented to 
ver3_2f.ibs to include the approved BIRD56.1 and BIRD57.1.  The date used in 
the examples will be changed from December 18, 1998 to January 15, 1999 since 
Bob embeds the ratification date of each release into the IBIS document.  A
cleaned up voting copy designated ver3_2.ibs along with ver3_2f.ibs will be 
uploaded for review at

  http://www.eda.org/pub/ibis/wip

Bob noted that he had started work on ver3_2.ibs before BIRD57 was issued.
Editorial corrections will be welcome.  These corrections will be included in 
the accepted version of the document.

AR - Bob Ross to upload ver3_2f.ibs and ver3_2.ibs to the work in progress 
directory by December 24, 1998.

AR - Everyone to review these documents and provide corrections to Bob Ross or
the IBIS reflector.

In addition, Bob noted that some parser changes will be communicated to Atul
Agarwal as a result of BIRD56.1 and BIRD57.1 adoption.  Bob hopes that the
updated parser will be available for voting at the next meeting.  Also Chris
Rokusek indicated that he will be able to make executables of this version.


BUG31 - ERROR FOR [Pulldown] DECREASING CURRENT SHOULD BE WARNING
Bob Ross mentioned that the main intent of BUG31 is to convert some V/I table
Error messages into Warning messages.  The error message was originally
introduced because the polarity rules regarding when currents and voltages
were positive and negative was confusing and a common source of error.  This
was especially true when dealing with both CMOS/TTL and ECL technologies.  A
newer architecture that was not anticipated allows, for example, the ground
clamp to be active only in the Input mode of an I/O buffer.  The ground clamp 
may be switched out for the output mode.  One way to deal with this in Version 
2.1 level IBIS models is to add a compensating current in the Pulldown and 
Pullup tables in the ground clamping regions to compensate for the ground
clamp table that would still be in the model.  This compensation would usually
cause the parser to produce an error - even though the summed I/V tables are
monotonic and in compliance with the overall polarity guidelines.

Bob indicated that the dynamic clamp submodel in static mode would be the
correct way to deal with this structure using IBIS Version 3.1.

The committee voted to fix the parser based on BUG31 and change the Error
message to a Warning.

AR - Bob Ross to communicate ibischk3 parser changes to Atul Agarwal.


TEKTRONIX IPA510 SOFTWARE PROPOSAL DISCUSSION
Syed Huq indicated that he will put some new information on the IBIS reflector
to update us on some additional options.


NEXT MEETING:
The next meeting will be on Friday, January 15, 1999 from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM.
IBIS Version 3.2 Ratification Vote is planned.  Ibischk3 parser acceptance
vote is also planned.
