Here's 2 for the collection.

The ES1938MI is currently being used in an EPIA-ITX based project

On the E1938-202 PCI card, do you know what the jumpers do?

From recall it was to enable amplification for passive speakers

That’s what I thought it was for but why do you need 2 jumpers for that. That’s a lot of combinations for something that’s on/off. Weird.

You need to do it twice because there's two channels. It's not a "logical on/of" but you route each channel through an amplifier or not. Feel free to do only one jumper - you'll see you'll have only one side amplified. Doing it with a single jumper would've required more components and added costs.

Ok that makes perfect sense. Thank you!
