/* Piezo This example shows how to run a Piezo Buzzer on pin 9 using the analogWrite() function. It beeps 3 times fast at startup, waits a second then beeps continuously at a slower pace */ void setup() { // declare pin 9 to be an output: pinMode(9, OUTPUT); beep(50); beep(50); beep(50); delay(1000); } void loop() { beep(200); } void beep(unsigned char delayms){ analogWrite(9, 20); // Almost any value can be used except 0 and 255 // experiment to get the best tone delay(delayms); // wait for a delayms ms analogWrite(9, 0); // 0 turns it off delay(delayms); // wait for a delayms ms }

Fun with Piezo's
I've created a simple beeping alarm with a Piezo transducer. Connect the Piezo + to pin 9, and the Piezo - to Gnd. Run the following sketch. Next version will be using the tone() command to build a Morse Code trainer.
