Hello @Spark fun,

1, I would like to know the above-mentioned link lifetime.

2, It is suitable for our product integration.

3, Is it Hobby grade or Consumer grade.

Regards

1 - years, if powered within spec

2 - Probably? That’s likely best determined by you/your team after purchase/testing

3 - Hobby…our products generally lie between industrial/commercial and consumer

Hello TS- Russell,

Thanks for your reply,

1, Please clarify whether to connect a 4Ohm 2W speaker or a 4Ohm 3W speaker for high-output sound to both the left and right sides of the amplifier board.

2, I am hearing a hiss and hum sound from the speaker when I turn on the amplifier module. Can you suggest ways to reduce this noise?

3, How long Term Availability /End of Life (EOL) of the amplifier module?

Regards

Sakthi

I don’t work for sparkfun so this isn’t an official answer but generally as long as parts are available and customers keep buying sufficient quantities of a product, you can pretty much bank on the product continuing to be available.

Since nobody can predict when those to factors will become unfavorable, you can’t really tell when the product will go EOL. You’re probably safe for the time being but anything could change tomorrow.

Even if the product becomes EOL, it’s just an audio amp and there’s plenty of other options should this one become unavailable.
