Is there a hardware or software way to further increase the speaker output

edited June 12 in Elecrow HMI Display

For Elecrow 5” ESP32-S3 Crowpanel (DIS07050H):

You can remove the two capacitors marked in the figure below and connect the pins together, or directly short-circuit the two capacitors to amplify the sound.

    This really solves the problem with the sound being too quiet on this display (Elecrow 5” ESP32-S3 Crowpanel (DIS07050H), board version 3.0).


    @Elecrow , Are these capacitors even needed there or is this a mistake? Because of these capacitors it is impossible to work with the resulting sound volume level, and also the amplifier datasheet talks about "magnetic beads" with a rating of 1000 Ω in place of these capacitors:

    Thank you, I'll wait, I wonder what will come of this and whether the sound level problem will be solved by hardware, since I plan to use these displays in my project.


    I can also recommend to those who want to enhance the sound on a 5” HMI display V3.0 another sound library (not the one recommended in the guides):
    https://github.com/pschatzmann/arduino-audio-tools
    It's a bit tricky to figure out, but it allows you to boost the sound software-wise.

    Sorry, there is a problem with the design of this place. Connecting a capacitor here will cause the volume to be very low. In fact, it is OK to connect directly without a capacitor, or connect a magnetic bead as specified in the specification.
