Digital Command Control. DCC systems allow you to simulate prototypical train operation on your model railroad. With DCC you can operate multiple locomotives independently at the same time on the same section of track without a computer and without blocking or other complex wiring schemes. DCC systems use digital data packets to communicate commands to decoders that control locomotives and turnouts on the railroad. | Digital Command Control.

- | Dual In Line sockets. A DIL socket is usually two rows of pins surrounded by plastic to be soldered to a printed circuit board to receive the pins of an IC. DIL sockets are used when you want to be able to easily remove an IC from a PCB without having to desolder it from the board. | + | Dual In Line sockets.
