# gnucap-ibis(1)

GNU Circuit Analysis Package IBIS translator

## NAME

gnucap-ibis - GNU Circuit Analysis Package IBIS translator

## SYNOPSIS

**gnucap-ibis** \[**--typ**\] \[**--min**\] \[**--max**\] \[**--power-on**\] \[**--on**\] \[**--off**\] filename \[**--dump** \[filename\]\] \[**--spice** \[filename\]\]\

## DESCRIPTION

*GNUCAP-IBIS* is a IBIS translator tool in the GNUCAP suite. It will transform IBIS models into SPICE models for use in SPICE simulations.

The IBIS model in *filename* is being parsed and can be translated to whatever format is requested. By using the **--spice** option a SPICE model can be generated. By using the **--dump** option a IBIS dump may be performed (mainly for testing purposes). A typical usage can be

gnucap-ibis mymodel.ibis -spice

## OPTIONS

- *--typ*

  *sets simulation mode to typical values (default)*

- *--min*

  *sets simulation mode to minimal values*

- *--max*

  *sets simulation mode to maximal values*

- *--power-on*

  *sets device state to power on*

- *--on*

  *sets device state to on*

- *--off*

  *sets device state to off*

- *--prefix prefix*

  *sets the prefix on generated code (default no prefix)*

- *--dump \[filename\]*

  *enable the dumping of the interprented IBIS file in IBIS format. Optionally an* *output filename may be given (default filename is incoming filename with .dump* *postfix)*

- *--spice \[filename\]*

  *enable the dumping of a SPICE model. Optionally an output filename may be given* *(default filename is incoming filename . mode .ckt).*

## BUGS

*See*  **/usr/share/doc/gnucap/bugs** *for a list of known bugs in this release.*

*GNUCAP is an ongoing research project.  It is being released in a* *preliminary phase in hopes that it will be useful and that others* *will use it as a thrust or base for their research.  I also hope* *for some comments that may help me direct my research.*
