FD-R Basic 2

English

Required materials

For mounting and connecting the decoder you need:

an electronic soldering iron (max. 30 Watt) or a regulated soldering
iron with a fine tip and a soldering iron stand,

a tip-cleaning sponge,

a heat-resistant mat,

a small side cutter, a wire stripper and a pair of tweezers,

electronic tin solder (0.5 mm diameter).

In order to connect decoders without soldered connecting wires you will
need   wire.   Recommended   cross   sections:  >  0.04   mm²   for   all
connections.

In order to bridge short current interruptions you need:

an electrolytic capacitor with a capacity of 100 to 470 µF and a
proof voltage of minimum 25 V.

2. Safety instructions

Caution: 

Integrated   circuits   (ICs)   are   inserted   on   the   decoder.   They   are
sensitive to static electricity. Do not touch components without first
discharging yourself. Touching a radiator or other grounded metal part
will discharge you.

Mechanical hazards

Cut wires can have sharp ends and can cause serious injuries. Watch
out for sharp edges when you pick up the PCB. 
Visibly   damaged   parts   can   cause   unpredictable   danger.   Do   not   use
damaged parts: recycle and replace them with new ones.
