Hi, That's an impressive collection of tools you have on video! I am personally really interesting in Kicad having a full simulation toolkit, but that's a lot of work :) With Thomas, we have been trying to add some signal / power integrity tools into kicad for some months now. ( mainly on

Hi, The parser is not finished, not at all. It simply reads an ibis file and stores data in various C++ classes. But said classes are designed for the parser to remember an entire file. Then, I am thinking about adding another layer of classes, that could interface easily with a simulator (

Also of note... I've got a bunch of tools in glscopeclient and libscopehal/libscopeprotocols for NRZ/PAM4 signal generation, channel emulation, de-embedding, equalization, clock recovery, eye patterns, etc. Might be worth pursuing some kind of integration to develop a full channel design/simulatio

I started down the path of creating an IBIS-to-Spice converter a couple of years ago. I researched it enough to decide it was feasible, then discovered a commercial product demo that would do enough of what I needed at the time and stopped working on it. I'd just about forgotten about it until

2021-08-30 Thread Fabien Corona
Hello everyone, I am working on an IBIS parser for kicad integration. IBIS is a standard format to I/O buffers, that allows for "fast" and accurate signal integrity simulations. While parsing the IBIS format is not so hard, well... I have data to simulate, but no simulator... I was wondering

Fabian, we may check if IBIS simulation can be integrated into ngspice. Holger ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More hel
