SFF SIG to Set New Standards for the Industry
So the Embedded Systems Conference in Boston laid out more than just goodies for the tech lovers. Five major companies are collaborating on a standards project for small form factors. The group will be known as the Small Form Factor Special Interest Group (SFF SIG) and they have already made plans to develop, adopt, and promote circuit board specifications and related technologies to help electronics equipment manufacturers and integrators reduce the overall size of their next-generation systems. Contributors to this global initiative include VIA Technologies, Inc., WinSystems, Inc., Samtec, Inc., Octagon Systems, Inc., and Tri-M Systems and Engineering Inc.

"Due to great strides in chip-level design, VIA continues to reduce processor, chipset, and SBC size and power dissipation in order to meet emerging requirements for new SFF systems such as battery powered devices and industrial systems," said Daniel Wu, assistant vice president, VIA Technologies, Inc.
