Active & Passive Buzzer Module Kit — Arduino & Raspberry Pi Compatible
Add sound to your projects with this dual buzzer module kit, including both an active and a passive buzzer — giving you the flexibility to choose the right type for any application. Whether you need a simple alert tone or a custom melody, this kit has you covered.
The active buzzer is the straightforward choice — power it on and it beeps instantly with no complex code required. Just toggle a high or low signal from your microcontroller and you're done. Perfect for alarms, notifications, and status indicators.
The passive buzzer gives you full creative control. By feeding it a square wave signal between 2K–5KHz, you can program it to play musical scales, custom melodies, and variable tones — ideal for projects that need more than just a beep. It can even share a control pin with an LED in certain circuit configurations, saving you precious GPIO ports.
Both modules are driven by a 9012 transistor, operate across a wide 3.3V–5V range, and come on a compact PCB with mounting holes for easy installation in any enclosure or chassis.
