2. Introduction
IEEE Standards Coordinating Committee 20 (SCC20) - Test and Diagnosis for Electronic Systems
The IEEE SCC20 Mission:
“Provides for the management, development, and maintenance of language and interface standards supporting system-level (onboard and offboard) automatic test and diagnosis. These standards include (but are not limited to) test requirements, test programs, test procedures, diagnostic knowledge, maintenance information, and major hardware subsystem interfaces between and within Automatic Test Systems.”

Introduction (cont)
SCC20 is a:
Individual based
IEEE Type 2 Standards Coordinating Committee (SCC)
SCC20 is presently developing and/or maintaining a total of 22 IEEE Standards
10 are IEEE Full-Use Standards
8 are IEEE Trial-Use Standards
4 are IEEE Users Guides
