Errors in Component Model Parameters

This compiler hint appears when compiling an Integrated Library Package (*.LibPkg) and there is a problem with one or more pin models defined for a linked signal integrity model. The message is displayed in the Messages panel in the following format:

ComponentName: Pin models could not be found

where

ComponentName is the name of the component in the source schematic library.

Default Report Mode

Error

Recommendation

This violation typically arises when the model name for the specified pin model is entered incorrectly, or that particular model does not exist in any of the signal integrity libraries (located in the \Library\SignalIntegrity folder of the Altium Designer software installation). These include default model libraries (contained in the \base\b_models and \base\fpga sub-folders) and user defined libraries (contained in the \user\u_models sub-folder). User defined libraries include pin models defined manually, as well as those added by importing IBIS model files.

Double-click on the entry for the signal integrity model link to access the Signal Integrity Model dialog. Check that you are using the correct model(s) in the Pin Models region of the dialog and amend as necessary. If you are using pin models other than the defaults, ensure that the models reside in a library in the Library\Signal Integrity\user\u_models directory. Manually create them or import them if they do not, from within the Signal Integrity Model dialog.
