The AP512-PCB and AP512 module is configured for Class AB by default. The resistor – R7 – which sets the current draw for
the amplifier is set at 0 Ω in this configuration. Increasing that value will decrease the quiescent and operating current of the
amplifier module, as described on the next page.
