IBIS model for STM32F7

I need the IBIS model for STM32F7 (specifically STM32F746NG).

I tried the model available on the STM32F746 page (

http://www.st.com/en/microcontrollers/stm32f746ng.html

), but when I import it into Altium 17, it crashes. It crashes either while importing or while running the Signal Integrity Analysis. IBIS models for other chips work, so the problem is with my STM32 MCU component, not with my PC/Altium setup.

The schematics component and the footprint have been reused from an STM32 discovery board.

What should I do to have the IBIS model & Signal Integrity analysis work in Altium? How should I configure the schematics component, footprint and IBIS model? Maybe they are not in sync with each other?

Thanks

Hi Stefano, 

Check your Altium version and which IBIS version is supported.  And upgrade to latest version of Altium Designer.  We have an application Note on IBIS model usage with Hyperlinks software from Mentor Graphics  ( Siemens ).

Cheers

Hi

Zanotti.Stefano

‌,

Please refer to

http://www.st.com/content/ccc/resource/technical/document/application_note/group0/6b/b2/e3/f1/50/6d/47/0b/DM00257177/files/DM00257pdf/jcr:content/translations/en.DM00257pdf

. Section 3 shows anapplication example indicating how to perform a simulation with HyperLynx on a Discovery board with STM32F746 MCU.

Khouloud.
