Mike LaBonte conducted the meeting.

Call for patent disclosure:

  - Done

- Mike send out 1.1z version of IQ specification
  - Done

- David produce response to JEITA
  - Done
  - Waiting for David to be present for discussion.

New items:

Web sharing:
- Mike forgot to use MeetingPlace for this meeting
  - Will do this for the next meeting.

Moshiul will not be calling in for the next month.

Discussion of 5.2.18 changes from Moshiul:
- Moshiul: do we need checks for Threshold_Sensitivity?
- Kim: Check titles need to be consistent
  - "reasonable" is OK
  - Should we choose "correct" over "match data sheet"?
    - Kim: Sometimes from data sheet, sometimes from JEDEC
    - Kim: NWe need to define "correct"
    - Moshiul: the data sheet should be the reference
  - "present" is better than "complete"
  - We settled on "present" and "match data sheet"
  - Mike: how about "5.1.4. {LEVEL 2}  [Model] C_comp is correct"?
    - We can use "Correct" for items that are never from a data
    - Discussion of C_comp extraction methods
      - Bob: a TDR can separate die and pkg capacitance
    - We changed this to a "reasonable" check

- Mike: [Receiver Thresholds] should be useful for HSTL
  - HSTL receivers use a Vref signal
- No single subparameter of [Receiver Thresholds] is actually required
  - They are used in different combinations for different cases

AR: Mike update titles in IQ specification

- Mike: is datasheet 1 word or two?
  - We decided: "data sheet"

AR: Mike update "datasheet" to "data sheet" in IQ specification

Next meeting:
