Hi,
Am building a Dcc model train controller using a L298 as the output stage which feeds its output onto the rails. The pulses are received by decoders in the locos, the input to which is typically a bridge recitifer.
Because there is no direct motor connection to the L298 is it still necessary to fit the Flyback diodes ?
Have seen several working designs, some fitted with these diodes, some without ...?
Thanks
