IBIS simulation

[vpetrog]

Hello guys, i' m working on a new project, (called ArduGen, if anyone is interested  ), and one IC i want to use comes with an IBIS model. I understand that IBIS is equivalent to SPICE, but faster, the solution almost always converges blah blah, blah.

My question is, does anyone know a Software Simulator for IBIS models, preferably Open Source

Thank you in advance,

PS. First subject ever yeah

Have a look inside the IBIS model file, and see what components it contains.

Normally IBIS models are used to assure signal integrity, not device function. I would expect the IBIS models to describe the I/O characteristics of the pins: inductance, capacitance, voltage-vs-current.
