Speaker Outputs for SPK1
Speaker outputs SPK1 are push-pull amplifiers and can be loaded down to 50 Ohms and up
to 1nF. These outputs are differential and the output power can be adjusted by step of 2dB.
The output can be directly connected to a speaker. When using a single-ended connection,
be sure to have a very good ground plane, a very good filtering as well as a shielding in order
to avoid any disturbance on the audio path.

Speaker Output Drawing for SPK1
C1 = from 100nF to 47µF as per the speaker characteristics.
Using a single-ended connection also includes losing half of the output power compared to a
differential connection.
