16. Z U K E N R E D A C ZUKEN-REDAC CONCLUSION & PROPOSAL FOR AN INDUSTRIAL USE OF THE METHODOLOGY A modeling method permits to avoid the dispersion of certain electrical parameters of components and can be used by all HDT tools and THRIS environment But it can not be applied to all components placed on an industrial board Solution: a methodology that uses standard libraries with SPICE or IBIS models for most of the board ’s components builds enhanced models for critical components (for example improving existing IBIS models) using Models provider (for instance HDT)
