The Active Buzzer Module is a straightforward audio solution for projects needing a consistent audible signal. Featuring a piezo buzzer with an integrated oscillator, it produces a fixed tone—typically around 2.5kHz—when powered at 3-5V, making it ideal for alerts or confirmations. Unlike passive buzzers, this active model requires only a steady DC high signal from a microcontroller like Arduino to buzz, simplifying control without the need for complex waveforms.
Mounted on a small PCB (often around 22mm x 12mm), the module uses a three-pin interface: signal (S), power (VCC), and ground (GND). It draws a modest current, typically under 25mA, and is housed in durable plastic for reliable operation. Perfect for beginners or applications where a single tone suffices, it can be enhanced with a transistor for louder output if driven directly from an MCU pin risks overload (e.g., above 20mA). From alarms to user feedback, this module offers a plug-and-play audio device in a tiny package.
