Sound Sensor Module Guide

The document provides instructions for using a sound sensor module. It has two outputs: analog output (AO) for real-time voltage signals and digital output (DO) that indicates when sound reaches a threshold, which can be adjusted using a potentiometer. The module detects sound and converts it to electrical signals. It is connected to an Arduino board with DuPont wires based on a provided schematic and code is uploaded to read the sensor outputs serially. Adjusting the potentiometer sets the sensitivity threshold for the digital output.

Overview
In this lesson, you will learn how to use a sound sensor module. This module has two outputs:

AO: analog output, real-time output voltage signal of microphone


DO: when the intensity of the sound reaches a certain threshold, the output is a high or low level
signal. The threshold sensitivity can be achieved by adjusting the potentiometer.

To make sure the microphone can detect your voice normally, please try to change its sensitivity
by turning the blue precise potentiometer on the module. Given to its preciseness, you need to turn
10 times 360 degrees the potentiometer to start seeing some change.

Component Introduction
Sound sensor:
The sound sensor module provides an easy way to detect sound and is generally used for detecting
sound intensity. This module can be used for security, switch, and monitoring applications. Its accuracy
can be easily adjusted for the convenience of usage. It uses a microphone which supplies the input to an
amplifier, peak detector and buffer. When the sensor detects a sound, it processes an output signal
voltage which is sent to a microcontroller then performs necessary processing.

These microphones are widely used in electronic circuits to detect minor


sounds or air vibrations which in turn are converted to electrical signals for
further use. The two legs as shown in the image above are used to make
electrical connection with the circuit.

A solid conducting metal body encapsulates the various parts of the


microphone. The top face is covered with a porous material with the
help of glue. It acts as a filter for the dust particles. The sound signals/air
vibrations pass through the porous material and falls on the diaphragm
through the hole shown in the image above.

After wiring, please open the program in the code folder Sound_Sensor_Example and click UPLOAD to
upload the program.

See Lesson 5 in part 1 for details about program uploading if there are any errors.

High-sensitive Voice Sensor has two output:


AO: analog output, real-time output voltage signal of microphone.
DO: digital output when the intensity of the sound reach a certain threshold, the sensor outputs high
and low level signal, the threshold-sensitivity can be achieved by potentiometer adjustment period.

Please note that you need to spin the screw counterclockwise by a screwdriver until the
LED 2 goes out, and then use the screwdriver to adjust the 10K potentiometer.

Open the display, and you can see the following data:
click the "serial port" button to open the serial port.
The basic knowledge of serial port will be introduced in
detail in Lesson 4 of Part Two:

Serial Plotter Example:


When you speak into the microphone or inflate, you can observe that our waveforms have changed
