Thanks for replying to my question. I think I understand that I can use unequal timsteps to get better accuracy of the waveforms.

Hyperlynx is the editor that I am using to check the Syntax of the final IBIS file. I was just emphasizing the point that I get no syntax error when using unequal timesteps.

Thanks to everyone for replying to my previous post on the usage of unequal timesteps for rising/falling waveform. I understand that usage of unequal timesteps is preferred in most cases. What I wanted to know now is that is there an automated method/program/scripts that exists that most people use in creation of the rising/falling waveforms with unequal timesteps?

We at Cypress Semiconductor have come up with a methodology for creation of rising/falling waveforms with unequal timesteps and I was thinking of submitting a paper for the Asian IBIS Summit at Japan. Before I do so, I wanted to know what other methods do people use.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

The use of unequal timestep is preferred.  You should use more 
points where they are needed to express detail and less points 
in relatively flat sections.

It actually makes a difference.  If your data looks like steps, 
with groups of consecutive values that are the same, you are 
using too many steps.  It does matter.

You may not see a problem because files like that are common so 
simulators will drop steps to make the waveform smooth and 
simulateable.

algorithm to generate the points for you as=20 necessary,
but I prefer to set the simulation time step to= =20 a=20 low
number and then extract the 100/1000 best points= =20 from
that.
 
For example, depending on the edge rate of the= =20 buffer,
I like to simulate at 1 ps )or even lower if the= =20 buffer
is really fast) and then use IBIS Center's=20 "Best 100/1000
points" algorithm to reduce the total=20 number of points
from several thousand to 100 or=20 1000.
 
You can look at how IBIS Center picks the best= =20 points
in my presentation:
 
http://w= ww.vhdl.org/pub/ibis/training/IBIS_class_2003.zip
 
on pg. 29.  I hope this helps.<= /DIV>

The use of unequal timestep is preferred.  You should use more=20

in relatively flat sections.

It actually makes a difference.  If your data looks like steps,=20

You may not see a problem because files like that are common so=20

Hi All,

 

I have questions regarding two issues with analog swit= ches in IBIS.

 

1.&n= bsp;      C_comp

I usually describe a switch= with a Terminator model for the clamping behavior of the pin, and a Series_switch model for the actual switch current tables. The Switch model is then select= ed via the [Series Pin Mapping] and [Series Switch Groups] sections. Both mode= ls must have a C_comp defined.

I assume the C_comp represe= nts the ON capacitance of the switch. Is this correct?

What C_comp will be used by= the simulator? (Does the value in the Series_switch model replace the one in the Terminator model?)

What if I have an asymmetri= cal switch? In this case there will be different models with different C_comp values for the switch, but what about the C_comp value in the Terminator mo= del?

 

2.&n= bsp;      [Series Pin Mapping]

This describes which pins a= re connected to the switch. What if I have two packages, one with a flipped di= e. In this case the pin mapping changes.

Is there a nice way of comb= ining this in one model? Or should I make separate models for each package?<= /o:p>

 

Kind Regards,

 

Ren=E9 Voshol

Canes,
 
The general rule is that R_fixture should be close to=
the impedance of the T-line that the buffer is design= ed
to drive.  However, V_fixture has an effect also= on
the accuracy.  You can see a few waveforms in on= e of
my presentations:
 
 
The conclusions don't say this, but looking at the
waveforms carefully, it seems that selecting V_fixtur= e
values so that the signal and its termination in the<= /FONT>
simulation is between the two V_fixture values usuall= y
gives better results.
 
A solution to this problem could be the usage of more=
than two waveform per output transistor, as shown in =
the second part of this presentation (pg. 14 and on):=
 
http://www.vhdl.org/pub/i= bis/summits/jun03b/muranyi1.pdf=20
 
 
But not too many simulators support more than four
V-t curves per buffer.
 
I hope this helps..

Thanks Arpad for your replies.
 
My simple question is does/how the accuracy of IBIS models
depends upon r_fixture/v_fixture values?
In otherway how can we select these values for a particular interface?=
 
For e.g you were saying for DDR2 interface it will be an acc= urate model to connect vfixture to vdd/2
if similar termination is provided outside also. Does it mean the mode= l would be accurate
if the board interface (for. e.g termination values, vref, rterminatio= n) parameters are incorporated into fixture

Please explain.

=EF=BB=BF
Canes,
 
1)  I would suggest that you look at the fo= llowing presentation
to understand the reason for V_fixture and R_fix= ture:
 
 
Pg. 5 shows you the basic algorithm for an IBIS = buffer model using
two rising and two falling waveforms.  If y= ou had no V_fixture and=20
R_fixture, you wouldn't' be able to calculate the out= put current
with respect to time for describing the transient beh= avior (i.e.
the switching characteristics) of a buffer. The I-V curves alone
would only tell you what the buffer does= when it is fully on high
or low, but they don;t tell you how to get there= when it switches
high-to-low or low-to-high.  This is what t= he V-t curves help us
to figure out based on the equations shown on pg= . 5.
 
2)  This is for generating the correct wave= forms when the buffer
is switching.  The timing aspects are quite= different from the
V_fixture and R_fixture numbers.  The other= IBIS parameters, like
Rload, Vload, Cload, Vmeas are telling the tool = how to measure
timing on the waveforms which were obtained in t= he simulation.
These parameters do not get used in the buffer's= algorithms
for waveform generation, these are only used for= using the
correct loading conditions to get a time point w= here the Tco
was evaluated for the buffer, and to start the t= iming measurement
from that point to where the waveform crosses th= e thresholds
at the receiver.
 
I hope this will help you to understand these pa= rameters.

Canes,

All of those parameters you mention are informat= ional,
that is, they do not directly influence or describe the
behavi= or of the model.  They describe at what condition
the data was gene= rated, or at what conditions certain
timing parameters were obtained.---
Canes:
1) The main reason for using the fixtures is to guarant= ee the maximun timing numbers
mentioned on the data-sheet. This number will be reflec= ted in the model if we use the
same fixtures (as mentioned in data-sheet) while creating the IBI= S. We can create IBIS
at 0pF/0ohms/0v (fixtures) also but this may not give the worst c= ase timing numbers as
reported in the data-sheet. 
Is my understanding right?
 
2) If I use the fixtures while creating the IBIS models, the V-T curve= s may represent the
worst case numbers directly. Any other loading (while SPICE simul= ating IBIS + interface) may
give numbers worse than worst case numbers mentioned in IBIS.
Under this conditions will it be correctly representing the system?
 
3) If I do a simulation (for calculating delay/SI effects) w= ith SPICE using the IBIS model + external interface,
the spice-engine will use only V-I tables (which was not using&nb= sp;any loads while getting created) and not
ramp data/rising/falling waveform.
Am I correct?
 
4) If point.3 is correct, why the V-T tables are required?
If 'not correct' how the spice engine (while SPICE simulatin= g IBIS + interface) may remove the
fixture values and extract the timing data from IBIS so that only exte= rnal interfacing effects
on timing can be simulated?
---
 
Rest assured that a model generated under a specific
set of conditi= ons will work reasonably well under other
conditions, but even if you ha= ve concerns about that,
the IBIS specification does have provisions for = providing
V-t tables, for example at multiple sets of V_fixture
and = R_fixture conditions.  And if this is still not
enough, you can alw= ays make multiple IBIS models and
use the [Model Selector] keyword to al= low the user to
switch between them.

But you cannot make a (behav= ioral) model without any load.
How would you obtain Vmeas, for example?&= nbsp; Or how would the
internal algorithm of an IBIS tool determine what= the
output current was when the V-t curves were generated if
there w= as no V_fixture and R_fixture connected to the
output?
---
Canes:
If I switch an unloaded IO (Cload =3D 0pF) which = will have some intrinsic parasitic load
(factored in C_Comp) I can still get V-T curve. For Vmeas, I can speci= fy as
per the standard (for e.g in LVCMOS I will say V(typ/min/max)/2:&= nbsp; in SSTL anyway its
there in receiver spec vin(ach/l)).
 
In otherway:

Hi all,
I haveA some doubts reg= arding the usage of IBIS models.
In the IBIS model,
1. Ramp measureme= nt is done with a default value of 50ohms (R_load)A
connected to vref.2. Also Rising/Falling waveformsA can beA simulated/measured with
R_/L= _/C_fixture/V_fixture.
3. Cref and RrefA  for specifying the way de= lay was measured by the
manufacturer.

With the above informationA incorporated in= the IBIS file, if used for
simulating
will it be correctly represent= ing the I/O?
For e.g. with R_/L_/C_fixture/V_fixture/R_load effects incl= uded in the
waveform data, if I make
some externalA terminations, it= is in addition to the R_fixture/R_load
and may not correctly represent = the system.

Instead, whyA don't we have only the un-loaded I/O buffe= rA modeled in
the IBIS so that
the designer who is using IBIS can put= appropriate interface and do the
simulations.
