Looking into the mainframe from the front panel, "A" pins are left of the connector centerline (on the plug-in PCB's component side) and "B" are on the right (on the plug-in PCB's solder side). Pins are numbered from 1 at the bottom to 28 on the top.  


There are two dedicated, floating 25 V<sub>AC</sub> transformer windings per slot, as well as several AC and DC buses shared by all slots.<br />
The mainframe provides supplies shared by all slots: 17.5 V<sub>AC</sub>, +11.5 V (regulated from the 17.5 V<sub>AC</sub> supply), +33.5 V, and −33.5 V. 
For each slot, two uncommitted transistors (one NPN and one PNP) are mounted in the mainframe. These are available for the module's power regulation circuits.
In addition, there are two dedicated, 25 V<sub>AC</sub>, 0.5 A transformer windings per slot, floating up to 350 V<sub>peak</sub> with reference to the common ground.
 
In mainframes that have a "[[TM500 high-power compartments|high-power compartment]]", that slot has a separate 17.5 V<sub>AC</sub> and 11.5 V<sub>DC</sub> section (floating v-v the other supplies) providing 4 A shared between them, and that slot's 25 V windings are rated 1 A each.
 
For each slot, two uncommitted transistors (one NPN and one PNP) are heatsink-mounted in the mainframe. These are available for the module's power regulation circuits and are rated to dissipate 7.5 W each.


The signal pin connections depend on the individual modules.  For details, please see the [[Media:070-2088-00.pdf|TM 500 Rear Interface Data Book]].

Tektronix TM500 mainframes provide power supplies and signal connections for TM500 plug-ins.

Mechanically, the interface is a direct card-edge connector with 28 contacts on either side, at 5/32" (~0.156" or 3.96 mm) spacing. The connector can be keyed in several places, the plug-in boards have matching cuts between contacts (see below).

Looking into the mainframe from the front panel, "A" pins are left of the connector centerline (on the plug-in PCB's component side) and "B" are on the right (on the plug-in PCB's solder side). Pins are numbered from 1 at the bottom to 28 on the top.

The mainframe provides supplies shared by all slots: 17.5 VAC, +11.5 V (regulated from the 17.5 VAC supply), +33.5 V, and −33.5 V. In addition, there are two dedicated, 25 VAC, 0.5 A transformer windings per slot, floating up to 350 Vpeak with reference to the common ground.

In mainframes that have a "high-power compartment", that slot has a separate 17.5 VAC and 11.5 VDC section (floating v-v the other supplies) providing 4 A shared between them, and that slot's 25 V windings are rated 1 A each.

For each slot, two uncommitted transistors (one NPN and one PNP) are heatsink-mounted in the mainframe. These are available for the module's power regulation circuits and are rated to dissipate 7.5 W each.

The signal pin connections depend on the individual modules. For details, please see the TM 500 Rear Interface Data Book.
