• Package—Package models are required in all IBIS models. JNEye includes the IBIS package model in
the simulation by default. You can choose other package models by changing the Package selection to
Custom and specifying the external package model (Channel type Package) as a channel component.
• IBIS Files—Click the file open button next to the IBIS File text box to select an IBIS model file. JNEye
scans through the IBIS file and allocates all available receiver components and models. If JNEye
encounters any of the following issues in opening or interpreting the IBIS-AMI model, a warning
message will be shown.
• No receiver component or model can be located.
• The DLL for the computer platform cannot be located. Note that the IBIS-AMI model is platform
dependent. For example, a 32-bit DLL is required to simulate in a 32-bit link simulator. A 64-bit
DLL is required to simulate in a 64-bit simulator. A 32-bit DLL cannot simulate with a 64-bit DLL
in the same simulation.
• The DLL occupies so much memory that JNEye was not able to load it. However, JNEye might be
able to run the simulation with such a DLL because of memory allocation differences in the JNEye
GUI and the simulation engine.
• Component—Select an IBIS component from the IBIS model.
IBIS tab
• Model—Select a device model within a component of an IBIS model.
• Model Selector—Select a model from the model selector list.
• Corner—Select the corner type of a device model. The choices are Typ, Min, and Max.
• AMI File—Shows the AMI file specified in the IBIS model.
Note: JNEye currently only supports device models with AMI modeling components.
• DLL File—Shows the DLL file specified in the IBIS model.
