How to Use AMI and DLL Files with IBIS Model in Topology Explorer (TopXp) tool

There are two methods to assign *.ibs,*.ami, and *.dll to do channel simulation.

Method 1:

 You can add the *.ami/*.dll model on the canvas directly in TopXp. Select Tx or Rx, right-click on the Tx or Rx block and select Add AMI.

The AMI bubble will be added to the Tx/Rx block.

Method 2 :

You can add following [Algorithmic Model] statement inside the *.ibs file and call *.ami and *.dll model files in the ibis file.
