IEEE Region 5

Convoy of Hope is a faith-based humanitarian organization dedicated to transforming lives in the U.S. and around the world. With a focus on ending generational poverty, Convoy runs impactful programs including children’s feeding initiatives, women’s empowerment efforts, and sustainable agriculture development. Beyond these core programs, Convoy of Hope is a critical first responder when disaster strikes. With a specialized fleet of vehicles and a trained response team, they deliver essential relief supplies to communities hit by natural and humanitarian crises. In 2024 alone, Convoy responded to 99 disasters both domestically and internationally. What sets Convoy’s Disaster Response team apart is their innovative model for serving survivors—something we’ll explore in more detail during the MOVE USA Tech Talk.

This session introduces the fundamental concepts and practical applications of boundary-scan testing, enabling engineers to efficiently validate, diagnose, and program complex electronic circuits. Participants will explore how IEEE 1149.1 revolutionizes PCB and IC testing by minimizing physical test points, supporting in-system programming, and enhancing system-level diagnostics. The workshop highlights how mastering boundary-scan methods ensures design for testability, improves production yields, and simplifies troubleshooting in embedded systems. PDH certificates will be provided. Offered by the IEEE Oklahoma City Section as part of the Standard Electrical and Electronic Engineering (SEEE) Workshop Series.

The "Per Unit System Refresher" session is designed to provide a review of the per unit system, a fundamental concept in electrical engineering. This refresher aims to reinforce participants' understanding of base values, conversion methods, and calculations within the per unit framework. By revisiting key principles and exploring practical applications, the session will highlight the advantages of using the per unit system for simplifying complex calculations and ensuring consistency in analysis. Speaker Name: Muhammad Hamid Agenda: AGENDA: - Welcome and Introductions - Review of Per Unit Systems - Revisiting the Fundamentals - Calculation Examples - Q&A Session Room: Lincoln Center 2 Conference Room., Bldg: Suite 400 Dallas,, Two Lincoln Centre, 5420 LBJ Freeway, , Dallas, Texas, United States, TX 75240.

This session explores advanced techniques for embedded instrumentation access, enabling engineers to perform in-depth diagnostics, monitoring, and configuration inside complex integrated circuits. Participants will learn how IEEE 1687 extends traditional JTAG capabilities to internal chip structures, standardizing access protocols and significantly enhancing system-level debug, validation, and maintenance processes. The workshop highlights how mastering iJTAG accelerates testing, improves system observability, and reduces product development cycles in modern electronic design. PDH certificates will be provided.
