Grove - Speaker

Introduction

5.0V Digital

The Grove- Speaker is a module which consists of power amplification and voice outputs. The loudness can be adjusted by the on-board potentiometer. With different input frequencies, the loud-speaker generates different tones. Coding the music into arduino, DIY your own music box!

Usage

The speaker can emit a variety of sounds like a car horn, doorbell and ignition . The different sounds are based on the frequency of the input signal.

You can supply different frequency signal to this module with Arduino. Arduino generates these signal via PWM or even digital write and delay.Here we are going to show you how to generate these signals using delay(), the speaker sound bass 1~7.

/*macro definition of Speaker pin*/
#define SPEAKER 3

int BassTab[]={1911,1702,1516,1431,1275,1136,1012};//bass 1~7

void setup()
{
    pinInit();
}
void loop()
{
        /*sound bass 1~7*/
    for(int note_index=0;note_index<7;note_index++)
    {
        sound(note_index);
        delay(500);
    }
}
void pinInit()
{
    pinMode(SPEAKER,OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(SPEAKER,LOW);
}
void sound(uint8_t note_index)
{
    for(int i=0;i<100;i++)
    {
        digitalWrite(SPEAKER,HIGH);
        delayMicroseconds(BassTab[note_index]);
        digitalWrite(SPEAKER,LOW);
        delayMicroseconds(BassTab[note_index]);
    }
}

Note

Due to the influence of the capacitance, the module can only output the bass signal, and the treble is unable to emit.

Caution

The platforms mentioned above as supported is/are an indication of the module's hardware or theoritical compatibility. We only provide software library or code examples for Arduino platform in most cases. It is not possible to provide software library / demo code for all possible MCU platforms. Hence, users have to write their own software library.

Help us make it better

Welcome to the new documentation system of Seeed Studio. We have made a lot of progress comparing to the old wiki system and will continue to improve it to make it more user friendly and helpful. The improvement can't be done without your kindly feedback. If you have any suggestions or findings, you are most welcome to submit the amended version as our contributor via Github or give us suggestions in the survey below, it would be more appreciated if you could leave your email so that we can reply to you.
