Simulator Settings and Model Usage

The following things need to be kept in mind while performing channel simulation:

  • Odd mode crosstalk is used to define aggressor and victim switching in opposite directions. This is required if multiple lanes are simulated.
  • An important note to keep in mind is that the jitter and noise of Tx/Rx blocks should not be double counted. As the IBIS-AMI models already have the various jitter sources incorporated, the option to include additional jitter in these blocks must be turned off in the EDA simulation engine of choice.
