More like the 5V regulator (most likely a trusty 7805 in a TO-3 package)
shorting, applying 8V to all those TTL parts on the board, which die,
and put 8V on the address and data lines. However, I'm not sure that
was a particularly common failure. In many years of working with a lot
of S100 systems, I never had that problem.
I am thinking of making use of 28V (aircraft power supply?) regulated power
supply, and have local linear regulator to created needed voltages. One
concern is, should I need large amount of 5V then loss will be tremendous.
Probably a better solution is multiple bulk supplies off line AC then
regulate down. Or a DC/DC from 28V to 8V, then good linear regulator to 5V.
There's really no way around it, although you can do things like
synchronize all your PWM converters, so if you do get spurs, they're in
consistent places.
I just came across an article that discussed magnetic field
sensitivity of LPRO-101. The author ended up relocating the transformer
off-board. (in a different case) A very timely information as this is
what I am actually working on.
Further comment will be appreciatedTakaTime-nut in training

Hi,
Usual (best?) is supply slight over voltage and use LDO/RC filtering in
each unit as Bob suggested. But that would require either supplying
24v/12v/5v/-12v (with some margin 10%?) or converting some single supply
of 24v or 48v in each unit to required voltages at each piece of
equipment. The later requires switching supplies to get all voltages.
Well that was the strategy used on S-100 boards. Bulk 8V unregulated
supply regulated down to 5V on the board.
