The kit includes everything you need to give your Raspberry Pi a voice!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Amplified Speaker board is an easy to use amplified speaker on a PCB. The board needs a 5V power supply that can be provided by a Raspberry Pi. Audio input will normally be to the 3.5mm stereo audio jack socket, which is mixed to a mono signal as there is just a single speaker on the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe board is based on the PAM8302 digital amplifier IC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x MonkMakes Amplified Speaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10x female to female header wires to power the Amplified Speaker (only 2 needed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x A short stereo audio lead\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Raspberry Leaf GPIO template\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRaspberry Pi not included.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGetting Started\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit the Raspberry Leaf GPIO template over the GPIO pins of your Raspberry Pi (Make sure you get it the right way around (see the picture above).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the red female to female header lead to connect one of the pins labelled 5V (it doesn’t matter which) on the Raspberry Pi to the 5V pin of the Amplified Speaker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the black female to female header lead to connect one of the pins labelled GND (it doesn’t matter which) on the Raspberry Pi to the GND pin of the Amplified Speaker.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the audio lead to connect the Raspberry Pi’s audio socket to the socket on the Amplified Speaker board.
