Turbine TBO

Hi Guys
Been trying to find out what the score is with the TBO on Turbine aircraft. How do they decide how long the engine life is? I was told that they don't have 50 and 150 hour checks like piston engines but have phases. How does that work and what is the time period for the checks?

The engine I have in mind is the PT6 either from a King Air or Cheyenne

Thanks
