Playing Melodies Using Arduino

George Bantique March 26, 2020 No Comments

Today we are going to tinker something easy and simple but interesting. We will be exploring something musical by taking advantage of microcontrollers capability to produce voltage signals. Our goal is to produce a melody using and Arduino Uno and a speaker. The theory behind this is by generating a square wave signal and controlling […]
