'''Tektronix [[TM500 and TM5000 mainframes|TM500 mainframes]]''' provide power supplies and signal connections for [[TM500 and TM5000 plug-ins|TM500 plug-ins]].


==Used in==
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).
* [[TM500 system]]
* [[TM500 and TM5000 plug-ins|TM500 plug-ins]]
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.


==Pictures==
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. 
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]].

Interface connections viewed from front of power module. Pins 14 through 28 are used for signal connections.
 
25 V<sub>AC</sub> winding connections 1A, 13A are in phase, i.e. for 50 V<sub>ct</sub> connect 1B-13A as for example in the [[PS502]].

==Connector keys==
 
The standard TM500 frames simply have a key between pins 6 and 7 as shown in Figure 3-1 from the [[Media:070-2088-00.pdf|TM 500 Rear Interface Data Book]]:

==Connector keys==
Other keys are added for options, depending on the specific connectivity requirements for families of plugins.
 
The [[TM500 Series Rear Interface Data Book]] details the various positions for the optional barrier keys and are summarized here for reference.
