J1962 - Defines the connector used for the OBD-II interface.
J1850 - Defines a serial data protocol. There are 2 kinds - 10.4 kbit/s (single wire, VPW) and 41.6 kbit/s (2 wire, PWM). Mainly used by US manufacturers, also known as PCI (Chrysler, 10.4K), Class 2 (GM, 10.4K), and SCP (Ford, 41.6K)
J1978 - Defines minimal operating standards for OBD-II scan tools
J1979 - Defines standards for diagnostic test modes
J2012 - Defines standards DTCs and definitions.
J2178-1 - Defines standards for network message header formats and physical address assignments
J2178-2 - Gives data parameter definitions
J2178-3 - Defines standards for network message frame IDs for single byte headers
J2178-4 - Defines standards for network messages with three byte headers*
J2284-3 - Defines 500K CAN Physical and Data link layer
J2411 - Describes the GMLAN (single-wire CAN) protocol, used in newer GM vehicles. Often accessible on the OBD connector as PIN 1 on newer GM vehicles.
SAE standards documents on HD (heavy duty) OBD
J1939 - Defines a data protocol for heavy duty commercial vehicles
