TM506

The Tektronix TM506 is a six-compartment mainframe for the TM500 system.

The rightmost compartment can supply high-powered plugins.

The RTM506 is the electrically identical rack-mount version.

The TM506A is a newer variant of the TM506 that essentially looks exactly the same as the TM5006, i.e. it is taller, has air outlets on the front and a flip switch instead of a pull switch.

Option 2

Option 2 adds internal pin headers for each slot as well as rear 50-pin and BNC connectors, allowing for custom wiring to, from and between plugins.

On the TM506, the rear connectors are installed in an additional rear plate mounted adjacent to the fan shroud.

Specifications

The TM506 supplies five unregulated voltages to the plug-in modules:

  • +33.5 V, 350 mA max, common to all plug-in slots
  • −33.5 V, 350 mA max, common to all plug-in slots
  • +11.5 V, 1.3 A max in regular compartment, 4 A max in high-power compartment; common to regular plug-in slots, floating on high-power slot
  • 2 × 25 VAC, 2 x 0.5 A / 25 VA (combined) max in regular compartment, 60 VA (combined) max in high-power compartment; floating ≤350 V (peak) per plug-in
  • 17.5 VAC with grounded center tap, 30 VA max in standard compartment, 95 VA max in high-power compartment; common to regular plug-in slots, floating on high-power slot
