Can a Analog Discovery 3 drive a 2W speaker?

[Bar]

Hello,

     I saw that an earlier version of the Analog Discovery had an audio out but this does not seem to be available in the Discovery 3. Is it possible to control a speaker directly or is an amplifier or driver needed? I wanted to do some bench top testing of a speaker such as this (1V, 2W, 4Ω impedance):

Would a driver like this work if it received signal from the Analog Discovery 3 if it cannot power it directly?

Any tutorials available about outputting to a speaker?

Thanks -Bar

Hi @Bar

The AWG channels can deliver 30mA
You can use the Audio Adapter+ or any other amplifier.
