The Small Form Factor committee is an ad hoc electronics industry group formed to quickly develop interoperability specifications (as a complement to the traditional standards process).
The SFF Committee was formed in 1990 to define the emerging disk drive form factor for laptop computers. In November 1992, the members broadened the objectives to complement the formal standards process in any area of the storage industry which needed prompt attention. SFF projects are in areas not addressed by standards committees because of timing, charter, or other considerations.
The committee consists of memebers that represent companies that develop, manufacture, and sell products and components for the storage industry. Its members include but are not limited to representatives from companies such as Amphenol Interconnect, Avago Technologies, Broadcom, Dell, FCI, Foxconn, , Fujitsu Components America, Hewlett Packard, Hitachi, IBM, Intel, LSI, Molex, Panduit, Pioneer, Samsung, Seagate, Sumitomo Electri, Sun Microsystems, Texas Instrument, Toshiba, Tyco Electronics, and W. L. Gore.
