Hello,
I am working on a TMDS interface design using a level shifter such as MAX9406.
I am currently performing signal integrity (SI) analysis (eye diagram, jitter, amplitude behavior) using HyperLynx, but I could not find an IBIS model for this type of device.
I would like to understand the output stage behavior for accurate modeling.
Could you please provide guidance on:
- Output stage type (CML, LVDS, or other)
- Typical output current vs voltage characteristics
- Whether the output behaves as a current-mode driver with external pull-up dependency
- Recommended equivalent modeling approach for SI tools
This information is critical for accurate SI analysis in our design.
Thank you.
