## Description

The Adafruit I2S Amplifier BFF is a compact add-on that brings high-quality 3W audio to any QT Py or Xiao development board. Featuring a MAX98357 Class D amplifier, it delivers crisp I2S digital audio using just three GPIO pins (A0, A1, A2) that don't conflict with I2C, UART, or SPI. Designed as a "Best Friend Forever" board, the BFF mounts directly onto the back of your QT Py or Xiao — solder it permanently or use pin and socket headers for a removable setup. Connect a 4Ω or 8Ω speaker via the onboard picoblade-compatible connector and you're ready to play audio. Key Features MAX98357 3W Amplifier – Class D I2S amplifier pre-configured for stereo mix output at 9 dB gain BFF Form Factor – Mounts directly onto the back of any QT Py or Xiao board Picoblade Speaker Connector – Easy plug-in connection for 4Ω or 8Ω speakers 3-Pin I2S Interface – Uses A0 (data), A1 (word select), A2 (bit clock) — no conflict with I2C/UART/SPI Wide Chipset Compatibility – Works with ESP32, nRF52840, and RP2040-based QT Py and Xiao boards Solderless or Permanent – Use headers for a removable connection or solder in place Ideal For Compact audio playback projects with QT Py or Xiao Portable sound devices and notification systems IoT projects requiring audio feedback Space-constrained builds needing amplified speaker output Package Contents 1× Adafruit I2S Amplifier BFF PCB (assembled and tested) 1× Header for soldering to QT Py Compatibility Note: This BFF does not work with the original ATSAMD21 QT Py, as its A0–A2 pins are not I2S capable. We recommend the QT Py RP2040 or any ESP32-based QT Py instead. Note: Speaker and QT Py board are not included. Resources Adafruit I2S Amplifier BFF Guide
