About Buzzer
Buzzer is used to make sound, tone and alerts. The buzzer used in this example includes three pins:
- VCC pin.
- GND pin.
- Signal pin (receives the control signal from controller).
- If generating a square wave of the specified frequency (and 50% duty cycle) on signal pin of buzzer, buzzer makes a specific tone corresponding to the frequency.
- If controlling the signal pin of buzzer to HIGH (3.3V to 5V), of buzzer makes constant sound.
- If controlling the signal pin of buzzer to LOW (0V), of buzzer keeps silent.
- This example shows how to simply control buzzer by controlling the signal pin of buzzer to HIGH or LOW to generate sound or mute, respectively. To do so, It just needs to connect an digital output pin of PHPoC devices to the signal pin of buzzer and control it. For advanced control, use can use hardware/software timer to generate a square wave of the desired frequency.
- Grove buzzer (for more convenience, use it in combination with PHPoC Grove Expansion Board).
- Piezo buzzer

- Setup IO pin to output mode.
- Get the requested state from HTTP request.
- Control the state of buzzer according to the requested state.
- Read the current state of buzzer .
- Print out the current state to webpage.
- Print out hyperlink, which can be used to toggle state of buzzer to webpage.
PHPoC code may add/update the content of HTML, CSS or JavaScript code. Once PHPoC code is interpreted in PHPoC, the remaining code is client-side code and it is returned to Web Browser. Web Browser receives this code and interpret it to display the webpage.
- HTML: describes the structure of Web pages
- CSS: describes how HTML elements are to be displayed
