"Manual" configuration from any datasheet is also sensitive to errors. The
nice thing about auto generation is that once you find the error and fix
the auto generation then it is fixed forever.

Manual errors keep occurring again and again and again.


The best shot that we have for a solution is IP-Xact (IEEE-1685). It was
created as a design language specifiably to solve these problems.

Ibis files provide quite a lot of detailed electrical information about the=
