The TRS-80 Expansion Interface (catalog number 26-1140) is the basic model, shipping with no additional RAM installed. Two other variants were also sold with catalog numbers 26-1141 and 26-1142, containing 16K and 32K or RAM respectively.

In addition to allowing extra RAM to be fitted to a TRS-80, the Expansion Interface also provides:

  • DIN jacks for two cassette records
  • Line printer card-edge for connection to Radio Shack Line Printers and other suitable parallel interface printers
  • Min-Disk card-edge for connection of up to four Radio-Shack Mini-Disk Drives
  • Expansion board card edge for use with the RS-232C Interface (or other custom designed PCB)
  • Bus card edge, which duplicates the signals present at the TRS-80 card edge.

In addition to these connections, the Expansion Interface provides a 25mS heartbeat interrupt to the computer (RTC).

The Expansion Interface is not compatible with a Level I TRS-80, only Level II.
