I will be away for the holiday period, from Dec 18 through Jan 3, so I won’t be able to ship orders during the time.

This is a circuit board that supports a Lily Go T7 S3 (mini32) board to manage multiple model railroad functions as a LCC node. This board provides the following functions: Four turnout motors with point sense. This board uses one of four turnout driver daughter boards: Stall-motor drivers, suitable for Circuitron Tortoise and similar slow […]

Deepwoods Software/The Country Robot will soon be offering a "shake the box" kit for a LCC I/O node based on the ESP32 MCU that implements everything needed for 1/2 of a siding, featuring these I/O features: Two stall motor drivers, with point sense. Two opto-isolator type occupancy detectors (will work with either DCC or DC […]

Open design available on GitHub: https://github.com/RobertPHeller/RPi-RRCircuits/tree/master/ESP32-PWMHalfSidingSMD. Firmware also available on GitHub: https://github.com/RobertPHeller/RPi-RRCircuits/tree/master/ESP32MRNSketches/ESP32-PWMHalfSiding. This is a circuit board that supports an ESP32 Dev Kit board or TTGO-T1 board to manage one half (one end) of a siding. This board can also be used to manage two bi-directional single track ABS blocks or one bi-directional dual track […]

The Country Robot has designed four printed circuit boards that implement a Quad Stall Motor Driver with Sense. These boards use the same basic circuit. There is a HAT board for a Rasberry Pi B+, a Cape board for a Beagle Bone, a base board for a Pocket Beagle, and a base board for an […]

What it is This article is about Raspberry Pi Junction, a simple demo layout featuring a simple interlocking off the main line at Mile Post 314 that goes past the Mad Hatter Pie Shop. The junction itself and the adjacent blocks are controlled by a Raspberry Pi Model 3 B+ (sirtopemhat), which has five HAT […]

The Country Robot is now offering 3 bare Raspberry Pi "HAT" boards that are useful for Model Railroad Automation. There is a board for managing stall motor switch machine, and two I/O boards. There is also an octal LED driver board. All three HATs are supported by Deepwoods Software’s Model Railroad System. These are bare […]

Deepwoods Software is pleased to announce the launch of The Country Robot site. This site will showcase the circuit boards that have been designed by Deepwoods Software. These boards are open designs with all design information available on GitHub with the parts collected into "Projects" on Mouser’s website. Deepwoods Software is a software and system […]
