Models
IBIS
To ensure first path success, NXP strongly recommends using the IBIS
models for board-level simulations, especially for SerDes and DDR
characteristics.
Contact your NXP
representative
BSDL
Use the BSDL files in board verification.
Contact your NXP
representative
Flotherm
Use the Flotherm model for thermal simulation. Especially without forced
cooling or constant airflow, a thermal simulation should not be skipped.
