Published by JEDEC and Open NAND Flash Interface Workgroup
This is a Press Release edited by StorageNewsletter.com on November 13, 2012 at 2:42 pmJEDEC Solid State Technology Association and the Open NAND Flash Interface Workgroup (ONFI) announced the publication of JESD230 NAND Flash Interface Interoperability Standard (Package).
This jointly developed document defines a standard for NAND flash device interface interoperability.
JESD230 is available for download for free (registration or login required) from both organizations.
It addresses signaling escriptions, packages, definitions, abbreviations and conventions, and is backwards compatible with existing technologies to the greatest degree possible. The standard will help enable the design of inter-operable systems that can support Asynchronous SDR, Synchronous DDR and Toggle DDR NAND flash devices.
"By joining forces to develop and publish JESD230, ONFI and JEDEC have responded to the industry’s need for interoperability among NAND vendors, which will enable even broader use of NAND flash in a wide variety of applications," said Amber Huffman, senior principal engineer, Intel Corp.‘s Storage Technologies Group and chairperson for the ONFI Workgroup Board of Directors.
Added Cecil Ho, chairman of JEDEC’s JC-42.4 Subcommittee, added: "JEDEC is delighted to have collaborated with ONFI to develop and publish the first joint NAND Flash Interoperability Standard focused on packages, which we believe will be welcome news to NAND flash vendors and end users."
