Audio wiring and code using a Audio Amplifier

Post by dongilles » Thu Apr 13, 2017 1:04 am

Hello all,

While makeing my GBZ with Helder's AIO 2.2 board I messed something up with the audio, even with a lot of help of the community I was not able to get the audio working.

Now I orderd the Audio Amplifier from Banggood and skip the AIO board with regards to audio. but I have no idea how to wire it to my Rasp Zero, to the amplifier and to the speaker and I can not find a wiring diagram. Can someone help me with this?
This is the amp I have bought: http://www.banggood.com/2x3W-Mini-Digit ... 37201311DI (recommened by the Wiki)

Furthermore to get the AIO board working I changed the config.txt file. Is there something that I need to change to use the audio amplifier?

post a pic of your board, the sound issues with the AIO are fixable (you just have to get it right).... rather then completely scraping the onboard audio let see if we can fix it....
You may face similar issues with what you've ordered, plus you gonna have the issue of finding somewhere to place it in your build.

i had issues myself.... tried a few things and then just as i was about to give up, success

if you post a pic of the aboard, the resisters you have on them and if posible what you tried to solve the issues.... maybe we can get it working

Thank you for willing to help with the AOI board but I tried for a couple of weeks with a lot of help and now I want to try something else. That is why I bought the audio emplyfier.

ok, well good luck with that....

it might be an idea to give ppl an headsup on what you've actually ordered, someone may be able to help if its compatable with the raspberry pi


also you might wanna have a look at this

I have bought the amp from the Wiki so I guess that its compatible with the Raspberry.

i think your gonna have to buy something else so that it will work... (but not sure, i would suggest start looking over the threads again, i'm sure others have used this and show how it should be wired up)
