Description

NixTrainz | Decoder Buddy Original (1K Ohm, 8 Outputs)
This product is versatile in terms of direction of the placement of the board and mounting in various configurations.  It can easily replace a QSI board, a Dual Mode decoder board or be mounted directly on the electric motor or frame with Kapton tape.  (It is recommended that a piece of Kapton tape be placed on the bottom of the mother board to assure electrical isolation from the electric motor or frame.)
This mother board does not include a 21 Pin Decoder.
This mother board and connector board require soldering.
These printed circuit boards are NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN A DC SYSTEM.
The on board resistors are sized for some 12 volt LEDs.
Package Includes:
1x Mother Board
1x Connector Board
Dimensions:
0.67" x
2.20" x 0.35" (17 mm x 56 mm x 0.9 mm)
The mother board includes;
One 21 Pin Decoder receptacle
Two pairs of track input pads
One pair of motor input pads
One pair of stay alive pads (U+ and GND)
Two pairs of speaker pads wired in parallel
Resistors for use with LED lighting.  (Also available with 0 ohm, 750 ohm and custom specified resistors for function outputs.  this accommodates incandescent lamps or bulbs.)
The connector board contains pads for eight pairs of lighting function connections. U+ or the blue wire has eight connected pads for the common power source. The negative (-) discrete function pads are all labeled to indicate their connection to the functions available in the decoder.
The lighting connector was designed so that the shell of the diesel locomotive can be easily separated from the frame without un-soldering wires. This does require that the headlight and rear lights be mounted in the shell of the locomotive and that the diesel has a removable dynamic brake shell.
Incandescent lamps or bulbs are not well suited for the Decoder Buddys or associated decoders.  It can be done but it will require more electronics to achieve a result.  Our recommendation is to go with LEDs.

About us
Squeaky’s Trains & Things LLC was founded in December of 2019.   It was started by our family that has been in love with everything, trains large and small, driven by creativity since we were born.  We grew up playing with model trains and watching, learning about and studying different aspects of magnificent locomotives on a daily basis and today we still do.
It also has helped us get through rough times while dealing with being diagnosed on the autism spectrum.  Trains and creativity have always helped calm our daily lives while also becoming self-taught on making designs and artwork.
With this our family activity that grew into a really big hobby!  We realized local train stores were barely available and we also wanted to start offering other model railroading fans our self-made creations for their enjoyment.   We want to help the community around us by providing model railroad supplies and continue the legend of the greatest hobby on earth, model trains and railroading!
Our Squeaky’s Trains designs are handcrafted and custom made by our family. We offer a large variety of items from model train objects to household goods. Most in-house models are 3D printed and custom designed in Blender. We also offer custom features for premade model railroad objects, for example train cabin seating and light holders.
Thank you for your interest in Squeaky's Trains & Things!
