Description
The X600 Expansion Shield is a highly cost-effective multimedia hat compatible with the Raspberry Pi Model B+, Raspberry Pi 2 Model B, and Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. It uses an HDMI audio solution to provide high-definition clear sound quality and solves the poor quality problem with the Raspberry Pi integrated sound card. The shield supports digital audio 5.1 channel output and 2.0 channel analog audio output, with support for Dolby digital AC-3, DTS, LPCM, and other digital audio formats.
