N
Scale BEMF Decoders
BEMF
and N Scale. N scale has always presented
a challenge in the area of motor control due to the
small size of the motor and flywheels. All this has
changed with the introduction of TCS's new
BEMF (BEMF = Back EMF / Load Compensation
programming, built into the new TCS chips) which
compensates for the small size of N motors/flywheels.
TCS BEMF provides outstanding slow speed control
for N. TCS's new advanced BEMF automatically adjusts
for optimum control through all speed ranges. New CN Classic
Decoder has been designed
to fit inside the Atlas RS series of locos.
Two small boards connected by wire (factory
connected) replace the "headlight" PC
boards on each end of the OEM frame. You need
to "isolate" the motor and solder
a wire attachment ... that's it. The result
is a full function DCC loco (all the features
of TCS's regular decoders) plus the added performance
benefits of the new BEMF control. If you click
on the PC board photos above, TCS shows complete
install details on this simple conversion.
Highly recommended. Your classic Atlas RS series
of locos have never un so well! We expect that
this new decoder will also fit other split
frame N scale locos.
