The board offers high definition audio at boom box power levels in a small form factor.
The Infineon proprietary multilevel technology ensures minimum size and consumption, state of the art power efficiency, and HD audio quality for Raspberry Pi users and makers developing active speakers with wireless music streaming.
The board is compatible with Raspberry Pi Zero W and Raspberry Pi 3 and 4 and leverages the MERUS multilevel class D amplification enabled by the MERUS MA12070P amplifier, which allows for filterfree amplifier design that does not need to use a filter-coil at the output filter. This reduces significantly the BOM cost and enables PCB area reduction.
The board offers best-in-class efficiency and playback time up to 20 hours with a ~6700 mAh power bank. There is no need for additional power supplies, only a single 5 V/2.5 A USB power supply is required for both the Raspberry Pi and the HAT.
The board is compatible with the main Linux distributions such as Raspbian, Volumio, moOde Audio or JustboomPlayer. Dual-channel bridge-tied load (BTL) or single-channel parallel bridge-tied load (PBTL) configurations for Multiroom, TWS, or subwoofer applications are also possible.
