I mentioned the following idea to Ring in an email and received a rather dismissive reply.

when I started with DCC I used Lenz equipment.  they sold a decoder for N loco's that was in 2 pieces.  it was rated for 500ma so I used them in my HO 44-tonner's.  being in 2 smaller pieces makes it easier to sneak the boards into tight quarters.

the Ring modules doubtless have more components than an old simple DCC decoder, but nonetheless I think it's a viable idea.  also I'd suggest dispensing with the JST connectors to save more room--just have Ring hard-wire the leads to the boards.

attached is a link to the product info sheet from Lenz for the decoder I referenced.
