J1939

SAE J1939 is a vehicle bus standard used for communication between vehicle components. It defines five layers of the OSI model including CAN 2.0b for physical and data layers. All J1939 packets contain a header with a Parameter Group Number identifying the message's function and data. SAE J1939 has been widely adopted by diesel engine manufacturers and can now be found in vehicles, marine, power generation and industrial applications.

J1939 1

J1939
Society of Automotive Engineers SAE J1939 is the vehicle bus recommended practice used for communication and
diagnostics among vehicle components, originally by the car and heavy-duty truck industry in the United States.
SAE J1939 is used in the commercial vehicle area for communication throughout the vehicle. With a different
physical layer, it is used between the tractor and trailer. This is specified in ISO 11992.
SAE J1939 defines five layers in the seven-layer OSI network model, and this includes the Controller Area Network
(CAN) 2.0b specification (using only the 29-bit/"extended" identifier) for the physical and data-link layers. Under
J1939/11 and J1939/15, the baud rate is specified as 250 kbit/s, with J1939/14 specifying 500 kbit/s. The session and
presentation layers are not part of the specification.
Originally, CAN was not mentioned in J1939, which covered cars and tractor-trailer rigs, and with some dual and
triple use 8-bit addresses assigned by the SAE J1939 board. CAN was not originally free, but its instruction set did
fit in the custom instruction format of J1939. This was true as of 2000. Since then, CAN has been included, the
chipset for J1939 has been clocked faster, and 16-bit addresses (PGN) have replaced 8-bit addresses.
J1939, ISO 11783 and NMEA 2000 all share the same high level protocol.
All J1939 packets, except for the request packet, contain eight bytes of data and a standard header which contains an
index called Parameter Group Number (PGN), which is embedded in the message's 29-bit identifier. A PGN
identifies a message's function and associated data. J1939 attempts to define standard PGNs to encompass a wide
range of automotive, agricultural, marine and off-road vehicle purposes. A range of PGNs (00FF0016 through
00FFFF16, inclusive) is reserved for proprietary use. PGNs define the data which is made up of a variable number of
SPN elements defined for unique data. For example, there exists a predefined SPN for engine RPM.
SAE J1939 can be considered the replacement for the older SAE J1708 and SAE J1587 specifications.
SAE J1939 has been adopted widely by diesel engine manufacturers. One driving force behind this is the increasing
adoption of the engine Electronic Control Unit (ECU), which provides one method of controlling exhaust gas
emissions within US and European standards. Consequently, SAE J1939 can now be found in a range of
diesel-powered applications: vehicles (on- and off-road), marine propulsion, power generation and industrial
pumping.
Applications of J1939 now include off-highway, truck, bus, and even some passenger car applications.
