PS505
The Tektronix PS505 is a 3.0–5.5 V, 4 A power supply plug-in for the TM500 system.
It is designed to operate in the right-hand (high power) compartment of a TM504 or TM506.
In a low-power compartment, a rear switch limits the output to 1 A (indicated by front-panel "NON FLOATING / 1 A LIMIT" LED).
