Rear interface
The SC504 has dedicated rear interface signal inputs switchable from the front panel AC/DC/GND/Int DC coupling selectors. These are terminated in 50 Ω (max. 5 VRMS, 0.5 W).
Additionally, it provides a trigger input, Z-axis input (±5 V), delayed gate input (ECL), gate select input (ground for ext gate), intensify input (ECL), Ch1 trigger output (>50 mV/Div, 30 MHz), triggered gate output (ECL), holdoff output (ECL), ramp output (0−10 V), sweep reset input, ready light output, and +5 V.

Internals
A slide switch under the right side cover allows the variable sweep control to be used as a variable holdoff control instead.
The SC504 uses some custom Tek ICs, namely the 155-0124-00 preamplifier (U4345), 155-0109-01 trigger (U3238), and 155-0122-00 A-B logic (U3158). There are two passive input attenuator hybrids (HY1520, HY1420) and two 155-0161-00 attenuator/amplifier hybrids (HY1530, HY1430).
The power supply uses the pass transistors provided by the two mainframe slots that the SC504 covers. Those on the right slot provide ±20 V from the mainframe's ±33.5 V rails, those on the left slot make +5 V from the +11.5 V rail and −5 V from the rectified 17 VAC supply. Power is drawn from the right mainframe slot, the pass transistors are the only connections on the left slot.
