Behavioural mixed-signal modelKY-006 / PKM17EPPbuzzer_passive

Passive piezo buzzer (tone())

Piezo transducer without its own oscillator: capacitive (≈ 20 nF), reproduces the drive signal – use tone(pin, f) directly on the pin. Audible with 🔈.

Simulation model

A behavioural model implements the interface of the chip (registers, protocol, timing) at its pins. The pins are connected to the analog circuit like CMOS pins.
