That is a circuit board, not an amplifier.They are TWO individual parts installed onto that amplifier. To "connect" them together they are installed onto the circuit board and secured in place. The gap between them has been "bridged" with the trace on the board and they now share the same signal path.
Regardless, you are clutching at straws. That amp IC and the amplifier (as a box full of circuitry) is mono, with a mono output. It is not a "multiple output" mono amp that is "internally bridged".
No such thing exists.
And "bridged" in audio is used to describe summing two mono amp circuits to make a singular more powerful one, not to say you are connecting speaker wires in parallel.
Maybe if you know nothing about electronics or circuits.Connection, terminal and output all describe the same thing.
This is a car audio forum. If you don;t know the terminology, don't argue it.
Go somewhere else and talk about your bridged mono amp with multiple outputs.
All amplifiers are monophonic.A monophonic amplifier can have multiple output connections. Nobody is saying connection means channel in this argument. Nobody ever has except you. YOU are grouping the two words together to mean the same thing (Channel - Output). That is on you that you refuse to listen even after being told several times that in this argument OUTPUT IS A CONNECTION A TERMINAL on the amplifier.
In the world of audio, and output is a channel, whether you are talking high gain or low gain amplification.
The symbol for amplifier literally SHOWS there is only a singular output from an amplifier.
One of the members here used to do circuit repair for a job, and said as much.
What is your background in e/e to say that the symbol for an amp is incorrect, and has been so since it was created?
