Blade spec may become standard
SiliconSystems has contributed its SiliconDrive II Blade specification to the Small Form Factor Special Interest Group (SFF-SIG) to create an official governing standard.
SFF-SIG is an international organisation that leads a broad industry effort to create and promote standards for small form factor computers, controller boards and I/O modules.
SiliconSystems along with other companies has agreed to form a working group within SFF-SIG to develop a specification under the 'MiniBlade' name that will define a wide array of storage, communications, GPS and other I/O products that will be compatible with the SIliconBlade Socket jointly developed by SiliconSystems and Samtec.
SiliconSystems has agreed to contribute its SiliconeDrive II Blade specification that devines the pin-out and mechanical form factor of products compatible with the SiliconBlade Socket to the MiniBlade effort. The SFF-SIG intends to publish the new MiniBlade specification within the next few months.
