The AM-008 NS8002 Audio Amplifier Expansion Board transforms development boards like the micro:bit and Arduino into versatile music players by adding a 3W speaker module, volume control, and a headphone jack. This compact and efficient board is suitable for both individual users and business purchasing.
Long Description
The AM-008 NS8002 Audio Amplifier Expansion Board is a compact yet powerful solution for adding high-quality audio output to your electronic projects. Designed to be compatible with a wide range of development platforms, including the BBC micro:bit and various Arduino boards (supporting both 3.3V and 5V logic levels), this module is ideal for applications in STEM education, DIY audio projects, and rapid prototyping.
At its core, the board utilizes the high-fidelity NS8002 bridge audio power amplifier chip, which provides stable and efficient power output of up to 3W. This eliminates the need for bulky output coupling capacitors or complex snubber networks, simplifying your circuit design. Key features include a convenient volume adjustment knob for precise sound control, a 3.5mm headphone jack for private listening, and a switch to select the output device. The board operates on a wide voltage range (2.0V to 5.5V), making it highly versatile for various power sources, including standard 3.7V lithium batteries.
