   Support:  The Linesim Pro product supports IBIS as follows:
             1) Any IBIS file can be used directly as a 'NATIVE' file
               (Version 3.0 or newer).
             2) A single model in an IBIS file can selected, loaded, and 
                viewed directly.
             3) Several IBIS models can be included in a single file and used 
                as a library.  Note: this library file still complies 
                completely with the IBIS specification and can be checked 
                with the IBIS check program.

   Support:  Quad Design has a translation program that translates from IBIS 
             format to Quad Design .mod format.  This translator uses the 
             Golden Parser code with enhancements to warn of malformed (yet 
             legal) models.  The translator supports user input to be able to 
             select from the min-typ-max range of IBIS data.  This program 
             (IBIS2XTK) is available now and will be generally distributed 
             with the XTK 5.2 release (available in Feb. 1994).

   Address:  12th Floor, 191 Lombard Ave
             Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada R3B 0X1
   Support:  Quantic will be providing an IBIS reader (based on the Golden
             Parser) that will read IBIS models and automatically generate
             data files for Phidias (our graphical VI curve device modellor) 
             and database files that associate the component definitions with 
             the pin models.

             From Phidias, both SPICE models for Greenfield Phyllis (our 
             PHYsical Load and Line Simulator) and models for BoardScan,
             (our PC board scanner for signal integrity and crosstalk) can
             be created.

             The release date has not been set yet.  An application note is 
             available regarding using IBIS models with Phidias.

 Siemens Nixdorf
   Contact:  Werner Rissiek, Olaf Rethmeier
   Email:    [email-masked], [email-masked]
   Phone:    ++49-5251-284-155, ++49-5251-284-222, Fax: ++49-5251-284-105
   Address:  Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme AG
             Cadlab / Analog System Engineering
             Bahnhofstrasse 32
             D-33102 Paderborn, Germany
   Support:  Siemens Nixdorf uses the simulation program FREACS (Fast
             REflection And Crosstalk Simulator) for signal integrity 
             analysis within the EMC-Workbench. Siemens Nixdorf can read IBIS 
             Version 1.1 files and translate the IBIS models into FREACS 
             models.  Siemens Nixdorf uses an IBIS parser, developed by 
             Siemens Nixdorf, and a semi-automatic process for the 
             parametrization of the FREACS macromodels.  The translation of 
             IBIS to FREACS is available as a service for customers.

             A fully automated process will be developed when there are more 
             IBIS models available.

             Additionally, so called 'reference lists' are set-up that are
             used by the interface (XLIN) between the EMC-Workbench and the 
             FREACS macromodel library.  These reference lists consist of 
             circuit informations in a special language named HINAC 
             (Hierachical Naming Convention), where macromodel data is
             assigned to pins of a component using IBIS-informations, as 
             well.

             In this way a controlled set-up of a library is possible using 
             IBIS-files as basis.

             Detailed information will be available on request.

   Address:  
             
   Support:  TI has a three-pronged attack on IBIS support.  TI is working on 
             a scheme to automatically generate IBIS models from TI Spice 
             simulations (TI's proprietary Spice dialect), on an automatic 
             means to generate C code to be linked in to TI Spice as a User 
             Defined Element from an IBIS model, and an automatic means to 
             create the Spice equivalent of the IBIS model from the IBIS 
             model specification.

             The latter method differs from the second in that it uses 
             skeletonized Spice primitive elements in the form of a 
             subcircuit, while the second actually generates C code and 
             compiles it for dynamic linking.
