Circuit Documentation

Summary

This circuit is designed to interface with a sound sensor, a buzzer, and an LED. The primary function of the circuit is to activate the buzzer when the sound sensor detects noise above a certain threshold. The LED is included in the circuit but is not utilized in the current configuration. The Arduino UNO serves as the central microcontroller, reading the sound sensor's analog output and controlling the buzzer accordingly.

Component List

Description: The code continuously reads the analog value from the sound sensor connected to pin A0. If the value exceeds a predefined threshold (500 in this case), the buzzer connected to pin D8 is turned on. Otherwise, the buzzer is turned off. A short delay is included in the loop to prevent rapid toggling of the buzzer state.
