Datasheet

Connect the Headphone Jack

This step will be a little bit different depending

on which version you have. If your breakout is

v2 and has the round silver capacitors, add

jumpers for:

AGND -> Center 'ground' Pin

LOUT -> Left Pin

ROUT -> Right Pin

(these are in the corner in a row)

If your breakout is v1, the pins will be labeled

GBUF -> Center 'ground' Pin

LOUT -> Left Pin

ROUT -> Right Pin

For v1, do not use this wiring for powered

speakers or a line-in connection to a

computer/stereo. Only for headphones!

For v2, you can use this wiring for any type of

connection without worry.

Load some MP3 files

Copy 2 MP3 files to a micro SD card and name them track001.mp3 and track002.mp3

(this is just for the test, you can re-name them later). Then install the card in the slot on the

VS1053 breakout.
