Abstract

A method for simulating signal integrity of a hybrid model is provided, which includes: establishing a transient simulation link including a front-end chip model, a pre-link model and a terminating impedance model, where the front-end chip model is a Spice model; inputting an ideal step signal to a port reserved in the front-end chip model, and extracting step response data in a steady state; inputting the step response data to an input end of a channel simulation link, where the channel simulation link includes a relay chip model, a post-link model and a back-end chip model, and each of the relay chip model and the back-end chip model is an IBIS AMI model; and inputting a random code signal to the input end of the channel simulation link, and reading a signal outputted from an output end of the back-end chip and forming an eye pattern.

Claims (15)

1. A method for simulating signal integrity of a hybrid model, comprising:

establishing a transient simulation link, wherein the transient simulation link comprises a front-end chip model, a pre-link model arranged at an output end of the front-end chip model and a terminating impedance model arranged at a tail end of the pre-link model, and the front-end chip model is a Spice model;

inputting an ideal step signal to a port reserved in the front-end chip model, and extracting step response data in a steady state outputted from the tail end of the pre-link model;

inputting the step response data to an input end of a channel simulation link, wherein the channel simulation link comprises a relay chip model, a back-end chip model and a post-link model for connecting the relay chip model and the back-end chip model, and each of the relay chip model and the back-end chip model is an IBIS AMI model; and

inputting a random code signal to the input end of the channel simulation link, and reading a signal outputted from an output end of the back-end chip model and forming an eye pattern.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein

the pre-link model and/or the post-link model is a model using S-parameters.

3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein

the pre-link model and/or the post-link model is a wiring model having a length of 5 inches.

4. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

reading a signal outputted from an output end of the post-link model and forming an eye pattern.

5. The method according to claim 2 , further comprising:

reading a signal outputted from an output end of the post-link model and forming an eye pattern.

6. The method according to claim 3 , further comprising:

reading a signal outputted from an output end of the post-link model and forming an eye pattern.
