2. Define Ch0 Transmitter Jitter
| Name | Description | Entry Value(s) | Status | Type | Limits | Comment | Action |
| TransmitterJitterType | Transmitter jitter type | Integer | [0, 1] |
0 = Use Ch0 IBIS-AMI jitter |
3.0 Define Channel - the channel is linear and time invariant (LTI), but the AMI portion of IBIS-AMI models may be LTI or NLTV.
| Name | Description | Entry Value(s) | Status | Type | Limits | Comment | Action |
| ChSpec | Channel specification | Integer | [3] |
3 = Enable main channel (Ch0) |
4. Define Ch0 Receiver Jitter
| Name | Description | Entry Value(s) | Status | Type | Limits | Comment | Action |
| ReceiverJitterType | Receiver jitter type | Integer | [0, 1] |
0 = Use Ch0 IBIS-AMI jitter |
5. Setup Analysis - Bit-by-Bit Analysis is used by default; Statistical Analysis is used if system is LTI and SetupOption ForceBitByBitMode = 0.
