Data Sheet of Expansion Shield x400 for Raspberry Pi B+/2B/3B (DFR0449)
INTRODUCTION
The X400 Expansion Shield is a highly cost-effective audio hat which fits on the GPIO of the Raspberry Pi
Model B+, Raspberry Pi 2 Model B and Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. It uses i2S interface audio solution and
supports 24-bit /192KHz high quality sound. It is compatible with other audio equipment via RCA lotus socket.
It includes a built-in high fidelity headphone amplifier, where you can plug in a 3.5mm audio jack directly."
"
The shield has two digital amplifier output ports, up to 2 x30w speakers can be directly connected. Use this hat
to make your Raspberry Pi in to a lossless audio player or a network radio. We recommend using an OS image
such as Volumio, RuneAudio, PiMusicBox etc.
*Note: Raspberry Pi is not included in the box.
