(6) The patent ambush theory implies that Rambus deceived
JEDEC into adopting Rambus's technologies instead of competing alternatives.
The majority of FTC Commissioners had found that if Rambus had disclosed its patent applications and pending amendments, "
JEDEC either would have excluded Rambus's patented technologies from the [standards], or would have demanded RAND assurances...." (107) The Commission therefore refused to render Rambus's patents unenforceable, as it was unclear whether but for its deception,
JEDEC would have adopted a different standard (rending Rambus without market power) or instead would have required Rambus to commit to RAND licensing (rending Rambus without pricing power).
Electrical failure followed the
Jedec definition of "the first event of intermittent discontinuity followed by three additional such events during five subsequent drops." (5) Each board was dropped until all components had failed.
Rambus has in turn been sued by many companies--including Infineon and Hynix Semiconductor--who have claimed that Rambus withheld information from
JEDEC, the standards-setting body for the memory industry.
The GECI proposes to draw up a work programme for this.The initiative is supported by several professional organisations including: the Association Connecting Electronics Industries (IPC), the
JEDEC Trade Association, the Microelectronics Packaging & Test Engineering Council (MEPTEC), National Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (NEMI), the Semiconductor Assembly Council (SAC), le Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI), the Soldertee (ITRI UK) and the Industry Technology Research Institute (ITRI, Taiwan)...JJ:(AME)
All three devices are compliant with
JEDEC UFS Ver.
Jedec (
jedec.org) or the DRAM vendor's website are good resources for the requirements of the DRAM.
New DDR4 ball-grid array (BGA) probe interposer solutions for Infiniium Series oscilloscopes enable engineers to use the oscilloscopes for debugging and characterizing DDR4 memory designs and testing device compliance with the
JEDEC DDR4 standard.
Flexstar's TaaS program provides the proof that manufacturers and their customers require that their products have been thoroughly tested with a third-party guarantee of quality, including certification for Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA) and
JEDEC Solid State Technology Association standards.
Most portable electronics producers qualify assemblies by performing some type of system-level drop test, while component suppliers typically utilize industry standard drop tests such as
JEDEC JESD22-B111.
