5V Passive Buzzer

Description: 5V Passive Buzzer

5V passive buzzer is a small device that converts electrical signals into audible sound. It is called “passive” because it needs an external signal generator, such as a microcontroller, to operate.

Key Features:

• Operating Voltage: 5V DC
• Sound Frequency: Typically around 2kHz to 4kHz, depending on the driving signal
• Size: Varies, but typically small and compact, around 10-15mm in diameter
• Current Consumption: Low, usually in the range of 10-30mA
• Mounting: Can be through-hole or surface mount

Components and Structure:

1. Housing: The outer shell, often made of plastic, which contains all the internal components.
2. Diaphragm: A thin piece inside the buzzer that vibrates to produce sound when an AC signal is applied.
3. Pins or Leads: Typically two pins (positive and negative) for electrical connection.

Usage Instructions:

1. Power Supply:
   • Connect the positive pin to a 5V DC power supply.
   • Connect the negative pin to ground.
2. Driving Signal:
   • Connect a signal generator or a microcontroller (e.g., Arduino) to the positive pin to send a PWM or square wave signal.
   • The frequency of the signal will determine the tone of the sound produced.
3. Example Circuit:
   • For a simple test, you can connect the buzzer’s positive pin to a GPIO pin on an Arduino and the negative pin to the ground. Use the tone() function in Arduino to generate different frequencies.

Applications:

• Alarm Systems: Used in security systems to produce warning sounds.
• Timers and Alerts: Common in kitchen timers, microwave ovens, and other household appliances.
• Indicators: Used in various electronic devices to indicate states such as button presses or alerts.
