| JEDEC Chairman Denies Endorsement for NVIDIA EPP This week an industry announcement was made for a “New Open Standard Memory Specification” called “Enhanced Performance Profiles” or EPP. This proposal suggests that it can “allow memory manufacturers to integrate additional module performance data” by redefining the manufacturer’s data region, bytes 99-127. As chairman of the JEDEC SPD Task Group, I feel it is my responsibility to inform the committee that this EPP specification was not developed in my task group. In fact, we have not seen a first showing on the topic. EPP is not a JEDEC endorsed specification and should not be misconstrued in the industry as such. I do encourage the sponsors of the concept, or any other companies wishing to properly document higher DDR2 speed grades, to develop a truly open specification by submitting a proposal to the JEDEC committee and to the SPD Task Group and following the well established guidelines by which open standards are developed.
