(red & white) DCC booster output. The “daisy chain” feature of the
PSx modules makes wiring simple.
Note: white is the common color here and will be wired to the
same rail in normal running (outside). The white input is con-
nected to the side of the PSx modules that are not interrupted.
That is the trace that goes from the input to the output without
interruption. Note, too: the wires are slightly twisted -- the small
amount of capacitance created this way helps reduce interference
to the DCC signal.
I hope you feel more confident in designing your layout and
installing auto-reversers after this short introduction. Please
join us in the discussion that comes out of these columns. Folks
always seem to have additional ideas to share. Just click on the
Reader Comments icon at the beginning or the end of the col-
umn. While you are there, I encourage you to rate the column.
“Awesome” is always appreciated. Thanks.
Until next month, I wish you green boards in all your endeavors.
There will be no
Mr. DCC’s Workbench
segment this month. This
entire column would qualify.
