Electronic schematic / digital protocol

Hi,

One of my hobbies is electronics and modeling. I just thought it would be cool to make something “usefull” like light-control or something else to connect to my railway. I’m thinking of making it digitally since I like to work with microcontrollers ( or micro computers if you like )

Does anyone have a schematic for the digital train controllers? or know how the digital protocol works? Any kind of documentation will help.

Hope to hear from you!

Stop over at the Model Railroader forum - that’s right up their alley. I believe the standards for DCC have been published.
