Subfamilies
- Standard S LightANSI accredits standards that are developed by representatives of other standards organizations, government agencies, consumer groups, companies, and others.
- Standard M LightTechnical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
- Standard L LightIn 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 S Light ObliqueIt is usually a formal document that establishes uniform engineering or technical criteria, methods, processes, and practices.
- Standard M Light ObliqueANSI's market-driven, decentralized approach has been criticized in comparison with more planned and organized international approaches to standardization.
- Standard L Light ObliqueNot all technical standards are created equal. In the development of a technical standard, private standards adopt a non-consensus process in comparison to voluntary consensus standards.
- Standard S RegularA technical standard is an established norm or requirement for a repeatable technical task which is applied to a common and repeated use of rules, conditions, guidelines or characteristics for products or related processes and production methods, and related management systems practices.
- Standard M RegularPrivate 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 L RegularThere are many different standards in many fields of daily life. Standards are important so that correct comparisons can be produced.
- Standard S Regular ObliqueIn 1928, the AESC became the American Standards Association (ASA). In 1966, the ASA was reorganized and became United States of America Standards Institute (USASI). The present name was adopted in 1969.
- Standard M Regular ObliqueTeX 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 Regular ObliqueNot all technical standards are created equal. In the development of a technical standard, private standards adopt a non-consensus process in comparison to voluntary consensus standards.
- Standard S MediumMicrosoft Word DOC. Due to the market dominance of Word, it is supported by all office applications that intend to compete with it, typically by reverse engineering the undocumented file format.
- Standard M MediumThese 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 MediumCommunication protocols such as Morse code and USB are standards that allow different machines and people to communicate.
- Standard S Medium ObliqueFor 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 M Medium 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 Medium 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 S SemiboldMicrosoft Word DOC. Due to the market dominance of Word, it is supported by all office applications that intend to compete with it, typically by reverse engineering the undocumented file format.
- Standard M SemiboldA 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 L SemiboldPrivate standards typically require a financial contribution in terms of an annual fee from the organizations who adopt the standard. Corporations are encouraged to join the board of governance of the standard owner.
- Standard S Semibold ObliquePCI Express electrical and mechanical interface, and interconnect protocol used in computers, servers, and industrial applications.
- Standard M Semibold ObliqueThe ANSI/APSP (Association of Pool & Spa Professionals) standards used for pools, spas, hot tubs, barriers, and suction entrapment avoidance.
- Standard L Semibold 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 BoldTechnical standards may exist as closed or controlled documents that contain trade secrets or classified information
- Standard M BoldFor 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 L BoldCommunication protocols such as Morse code and USB are standards that allow different machines and people to communicate.
- Standard S Bold 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 M Bold ObliqueA standard specification is an explicit set of requirements for an item, material, component, system or service. It is often used to formalize the technical aspects of a procurement agreement or contract.
- Standard L Bold ObliqueTechnical standards are defined as Government standards, which are standards developed by the government for its own uses.
- Standard S HeavyTechnical standards may exist as closed or controlled documents that contain trade secrets or classified information
- Standard M HeavyMIDI connection (using DIN connector or Phone connector), electrical and protocol standard for connecting musical instruments, synthesizers, drum machines, sequencers, and some audio equipment.
- Standard L HeavyA 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 Heavy ObliqueUSB for high speed serial interface in computers and for powering or charging low power external devices (like mobile phones, headphones, portable hard drives) usually using micro USB plug and socket.
- 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 ObliqueAccording to Adam Stanton, the first permanent secretary and head of staff in 1919, AESC started as an ambitious program and little else. Staff for the first year consisted of one executive, Clifford B. LePage, who was on loan from a founding member, ASME.
- Standard S BlackThe people who use the item or service (engineers, trade unions, etc.) or specify it (building codes, government, industry, etc.) have the responsibility to consider the available standards, specify the correct one, enforce compliance, and use the item correctly.
- Standard M BlackTechnical standards may exist as public documents on the internet, public library, etc. Some technical standards may be found at a major central library or at the library of a good technical university
- Standard L BlackIn social sciences a voluntary standard that is also a de facto standard is a typical solution to a coordination problem.

- Standard M Black ObliqueGPIB, 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.
