Nope.

Each brand will have their own, slightly different, response curve.  The MegaSquirt code has to provide a way to choose the sensor provider from a menu, and it has a "custom" option so that you can create your own table from a one-off.  The Innovate LC-1 even has a way for you to reprogram the response curve with a PC.

Scroll down to the "oxygen sensor" section in the link above (about halfway down the page) for some very informative and detailed tutorial on the whole O2 sensor world.
