Play Grove Analog Microphone With Wio Terminal

02.gif

The Grove-Analog Microphone is based on high-performance SiSonic MEMS technology, offering an extremely-low-noise, low-current, reliable, and small microphone to opensource hardware industry, and it has improved performance under severe conditions. Grove-Analog Microphone is an ideal choice of sound sensors where excellent audio performance is required. It can provide up to 20dB of gain and it also features low current, max RF protection, which makes it a perfect microphone for Arduino and Raspberry Pi.

This instructable is going to introduce how this Grove-Analog Microphone works via Serial Port commonly, and meanwhile we will display its excellent function on our new-born Wio Terminal, one of the most popular newly-published products of our Seeed Studio! Can't wait? Let's START!!!

If this is the first time you work with Arduino, we firmly recommend you to see Getting Started with Arduino before the start.

Materials required:


Steps:

  1. Connect Grove-Sound Sensor to port A0 of Grove-Base Shield. And Plug Grove-Base Shield into Seeeduino and connect Seeeduino to PC via a USB cable.
  2. Please copy below code to Arduino IDE and upload. If you do not know how to upload the code, please check how to upload code.
/*
  Analog input, analog output, serial output

  Reads an analog input pin, maps the result to a range from 0 to 255 and uses
  the result to set the pulse width modulation (PWM) of an output pin.
  Also prints the results to the Serial Monitor.
*/

// These constants won't change. They're used to give names to the pins used:
const int analogInPin = A0;  // Analog input pin that the potentiometer is attached to
const int analogOutPin = 9; // Analog output pin that the LED is attached to

int sensorValue = 0;        // value read from the pot
int outputValue = 0;        // value output to the PWM (analog out)

void setup() {             
  Serial.begin(9600);      // initialize serial communications at 9600 bps
}

void loop() {
  sensorValue = analogRead(analogInPin);        // read the analog in value
  outputValue = map(sensorValue, 0, 1023, 0, 255);       // map it to the range of the analog out
  analogWrite(analogOutPin, outputValue);               // change the analog out value

  Serial.println(outputValue);    // print the results to the Serial Monitor

  // wait 2 milliseconds before the next loop for the analog-to-digital
  // converter to settle after the last reading:
  delay(2);
