This is the connection from the H704 power supply ( 76K) to the PDP-8/I logic. The card with the black heat sink is the G805 negative regulator which with the G826 regulator control generates the core memory voltage. The core voltage is normally about -22.5 volts and is varied with the core memory temperature to keep the core operating at the proper current.
