2X2Watt PAM8803 Class-D Audio Amplifier with volume control

PAM8803 IC which offers 64-step digital volume control and low THD+N, allowing it to produce high-quality sound reproduction. This board can be powered by 2 to 3 AA batteries or DC2.5V to 4.0V via a terminal block. Audio signal can be input via 2510 connector or 3.5mm headphone jack. In addition, this board still remains the features of AA-AB32131, such as over/under voltage turn off, over current protection, etc., and can be used to drive passive 4Ω or 8Ω speakers.  Volume control is available via on-board buttons or an external rotary encoder daughter board.
