Subfamilies
- Standard S LightA standard guide is general information or options that do not require a specific course of action. A standard definition is formally established terminology.
- Standard M LightTeX typesetting system, commonly used in creating scientific articles and reports for publication (in fact many journals require the publication to be fully written in TeX)
- Standard L LightANSI's market-driven, decentralized approach has been criticized in comparison with more planned and organized international approaches to standardization.
- Standard S Light ObliquePrivate standards are developed by private entities such as companies, non-governmental organizations or private sector multi-stakeholder initiatives, also referred to as multistakeholder governance.
- Standard M Light ObliqueThese standards ensure that the characteristics and performance of products are consistent, that people use the same definitions and terms, and that products are tested the same way.
- Standard L Light Oblique2.54 mm (0.1 inch) pin spacing on many electronic components, including DIP, SIL packages, header connectors, and many more. The standard spacing enable use of these devices in prototyping boards and standardized sockets.
- Standard S RegularTechnical standards are defined as voluntary consensus standards, which are standards developed or adopted by voluntary consensus standards bodies, domestic (national), regional and international.
- Standard M RegularThe existence of a published standard does not imply that it is always useful or correct. For example, if an item complies with a certain standard, there is not necessarily assurance that it is fit for any particular use.
- Standard L RegularFor example, a physical property of a material is often affected by the precise method of testing: any reference to the property should therefore reference the test method used.
- Standard S Regular ObliqueThe ANSI for eye protection is Z87.1, which gives a specific impact resistance rating to the eyewear. This standard is commonly used for shop glasses, shooting glasses, and many other examples of protective eyewear.
- Standard M Regular ObliqueThe American National Standards Institute is a private nonprofit organization that oversees the development of voluntary consensus standards for products, services, processes, systems, and personnel in the United States.
- Standard L Regular ObliqueTechnical standards may exist as closed or controlled documents that contain trade secrets or classified information
- Standard S MediumPCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
- Standard M MediumDMX512 (commonly just DMX) with XLR connector to control and sometimes power stage and venue lights, effects, smoke machines, laser projectors, and pyrotechnics.
- Standard L MediumA standard is a basis for comparison. Standards are made either by many people that agree on something, or if some organisation makes it so.
- Standard S Medium ObliqueTechnical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
- Standard M Medium ObliqueJoint technical committee on information technology (ISO/IEC JTC1) developed a procedure in order for de facto standards to be processed through the formal standardization system to be transformed into international standards from ISO and IEC.
- Standard L Medium ObliqueThere are many different standards in many fields of daily life. Standards are important so that correct comparisons can be produced.
- Standard S SemiboldIn social sciences, including economics, a standard is useful if it is a solution to a coordination problem: it emerges from situations in which all parties realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions.
- Standard M SemiboldPhone connector (3.5 mm jack), RCA and XLR connectors, used in the audio industry for connecting audio equipment such as headphones, mixing desks, microphones, stage lighting, etc.
- Standard L SemiboldStandard units, in physics and applied mathematics, are commonly accepted measurements of physical quantities.
- Standard S Semibold ObliqueProgramming languages that have multiple implementations such as PHP tend to also have a de facto standard. In PHP's case the de facto standard is the binaries available from php.net, rather than the Phalanger implementation.
- Standard M Semibold ObliqueBecause of the great influence of the IBM PC on the personal computer market, competing products like the Rainbow 100 were eventually withdrawn.
- Standard L Semibold ObliqueTechnical standards may exist as published documents available for purchase or private documents owned by an organization or corporation, used and circulated as the owner determines necessary or useful
- Standard S BoldTeX typesetting system, commonly used in creating scientific articles and reports for publication (in fact many journals require the publication to be fully written in TeX)
- Standard M BoldThere are many examples of de facto consolidation of a standard by market forces and competition, in a two-sided market, after a dispute, for example with VHS and Betamax in the videotape format war.
- Standard L BoldTechnical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
- Standard S Bold ObliqueIn contrast, a custom, convention, company product, corporate standard, and so forth that becomes generally accepted and dominant is often called a de facto standard.
- Standard M Bold ObliqueA technical standard includes definition of terms; classification of components; delineation of procedures; specification of dimensions, materials, performance, designs, or operations; measurement of quality and quantity in describing materials, processes, products, systems, services, or practices; test methods and sampling procedures; or descriptions of fit and measurements of size or strength.
- Standard L Bold ObliquePhone connector (3.5 mm jack), RCA and XLR connectors, used in the audio industry for connecting audio equipment such as headphones, mixing desks, microphones, stage lighting, etc.
- Standard S HeavyCommunication protocols such as Morse code and USB are standards that allow different machines and people to communicate.
- Standard M HeavyGPIB, multi-device bus protocol, mechanical and electronic interface commonly found in electronic test equipment, e.g. digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, etc. Initially created by Hewlett Hewlett-Packard as HP-IP. Commonly used with SCPI protocol.
- Standard L HeavyPCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
- Standard S Heavy ObliqueA standard is a basis for comparison. Standards are made either by many people that agree on something, or if some organisation makes it so.
- Standard M Heavy ObliqueIn social sciences a voluntary standard that is also a de facto standard is a typical solution to a coordination problem. The choice of a de facto standard tends to be stable in situations in which all parties can realize mutual gains, but only by making mutually consistent decisions. In contrast, an enforced de jure standard is a solution to the prisoner's problem.
- Standard L Heavy ObliqueThese standards ensure that the characteristics and performance of products are consistent, that people use the same definitions and terms, and that products are tested the same way.
- Standard S BlackANSI was most likely formed in 1918, when five engineering societies and three government agencies founded the American Engineering Standards Committee (AESC).
- Standard M BlackA de facto standard is a custom or convention that is commonly used even though its use is not required. De facto is a Latin phrase meaning in practice but not necessarily ordained by law, or in practice or actuality, but not officially established.
- Standard L BlackThere are many different standards in many fields of daily life. Standards are important so that correct comparisons can be produced.
- Standard S Black ObliqueVoluntary consensus standards quicken the market acceptance of products while making clear how to improve the safety of those products for the protection of consumers.
- Standard M Black ObliqueA technical standard may be developed privately or unilaterally, for example by a corporation, regulatory body, military, etc. Standards can also be developed by groups such as trade unions and trade associations.
- Standard L Black ObliqueA technical standard includes definition of terms; classification of components; delineation of procedures; specification of dimensions, materials, performance, designs, or operations; measurement of quality and quantity in describing materials, processes, products, systems, services, or practices; test methods and sampling procedures; or descriptions of fit and measurements of size or strength.
