The '''Common Flash''' memory '''Interface''' ('''CFI''') is an open standard jointly developed by [[AMD]], [[Intel]], [[Sharp Corporation|Sharp]] and [[Fujitsu]]. An overview about the specification is available at [http://www.amd.com/us-en/assets/content_type/DownloadableAssets/cfi_r20.pdf AMD]. It is an open standard, which means it is freely implementable by all [[flash memory]] vendors, and has been approved by the non-volatile memory subcommittee of [[JEDEC]]<ref>{{web cite |url=http://www.jedec.org/download/search/jesd68-01.pdf |title=JEDEC Standard: Common Flash Interface |publisher=JEDEC|date=[[September]] [[2003]]}}</ref>. The idea behind was the interchangeability of current and future flash memory devices offered by different vendors. The developer is able to use one driver for different flash products by reading identifying information out of the flash chip itself as can be read here [http://www.intel.com/design/flash/swb/cfi.htm Intel].
