A DCC decoder is a small circuit board installed in locomotives that interprets digital commands from the track. Decoders control motor speed and direction, lighting functions, and in sound decoders, realistic audio. Each decoder has a unique address allowing individual control. Key decoder manufacturers include ESU (LokSound), SoundTraxx (Tsunami), and TCS.
A digital system allowing independent control of multiple locomotives on the same track.
