SparkFun Qwiic Wireless Speaker Kit

The SparkFun Qwiic Wireless Speaker Kit is a comprehensive package that offers everything required to create a wireless audio speaker. The kit includes pre-soldered male header pins on breakout boards to save time during assembly. Simply wire the circuit, upload code to the ESP32 RedBoard IoT Development Board, configure the Qwiic-enabled Audio Codec (WM8960), connect your audio BT source, and start enjoying your favourite music!

The kit includes the SparkFun ESP32 IoT RedBoard, enabling wireless music streaming from an audio source to Espressif's ESP32 WROOM. The audio is transmitted to a SparkFun WM8960 Audio Codec via I²S, a standard audio data protocol. The audio codec is a low-power, high-quality stereo codec packed with features like advanced on-chip digital signal processing, automatic level control (ALC), programmable gain amplifier (PGA), pop and click suppression, 3D enhancement, flexible analog input pins and signal routing, multiple boost stages, and software-configurable I²S settings and analog audio path via I²C.

The SparkFun Qwiic Wireless Speaker Kit is perfect for crafting your own wireless audio BT adapter, portable digital player, sound-reducing ear muffs, or mixing audio to an output. It's part of the SparkFun Qwiic Connect System, an ecosystem of I²C sensors, actuators, shields, and cables designed to make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector, reducing the amount of required PCB space and ensuring polarized connections so you can’t connect it incorrectly.
