What is the primary function of a buzzer?
A buzzer produces sound when activated
Buzzers are commonly used in electronic devices for alerts and notifications.
What is the first step to connect a buzzer?
Place the Buzzer on the Breadboard
Ensure the legs of the buzzer are inserted into separate rows.
How do you connect the positive leg of the buzzer?
Connect the positive leg of the buzzer to a digital pin on the Arduino (e.g., Pin 8)
This connection allows the Arduino to control the buzzer.
Where should the negative leg of the buzzer be connected?
Connect the negative leg of the buzzer to the GND rail on the breadboard
This completes the circuit for the buzzer.
What should you do if your buzzer requires less current?
Use a Resistor if Needed
Adding a resistor in series can prevent damage to the buzzer.
Fill in the blank: A buzzer is connected to a digital pin on the Arduino, such as _______.
Pin 8
