How to read and understand homemade buzzer

Buzzer concept

The buzzer is an integrated electronic alarm device, which is powered by a DC voltage and is widely used in computers, printers, copiers, alarms, electronic toys, automotive electronics, telephones, timers and other electronic products as sounding devices. . Buzzers are mainly divided into two types: piezoelectric buzzer and electromagnetic buzzer. The buzzer is represented in the circuit by the letters "H" or "HA" (old standards are "FM", "ZZG", "LB", "JD", etc.).

Buzzer principle structure principle:

1. The voltage type buzzer piezoelectric buzzer is mainly composed of a multivibrator, a piezoelectric buzzer, an impedance matcher, a resonance box, and a housing. Some piezoelectric buzzer housings are also equipped with light emitting diodes.

Multivibrators consist of transistors or integrated circuits. When the power is turned on (1.5~15V DC working voltage), the multivibrator starts to vibrate, and an audio signal of 1.5~2.5kHZ is output. The impedance matcher pushes the piezoelectric buzzer sound.

The piezoelectric buzzer is made of lead zirconate titanate or lead magnesium niobate piezoelectric ceramic material. A silver electrode is plated on both sides of the ceramic plate, and after being polarized and aged, it is bonded to the brass plate or the stainless steel plate.

2. Electromagnetic buzzer Electromagnetic buzzer is composed of oscillator, electromagnetic coil, magnet, diaphragm and shell.

After the power is turned on, the audio signal generated by the oscillator passes through the electromagnetic coil, causing the magnetic coil to generate a magnetic field. The vibrating diaphragm periodically vibrates and sounds under the interaction of the electromagnetic coil and the magnet.

Buzzer work sound principle:

The sounding principle of the buzzer is composed of a vibration device and a resonance device, and the buzzer is further divided into a passive one and a second one.

The principle of the working phonation of passive passive excitation buzzer is as follows: The square wave signal input resonance device is converted into the sound signal output, and the schematic diagram of the working vocalization of the passive exciter buzzer is as follows:

The work vocalization principle derived from the excitation buzzer is that the DC power input is subjected to an amplifying sampling circuit of the oscillation system to generate a sound signal under the action of the resonance device, and the working sound emission schematic diagram derived from the excitation buzzer is as follows:

Buzzer purchase

There are many kinds of buzzer specifications, you need to know a few parameters (voltage, current, driving mode, size, connection/fixed mode), and of course, more important is the sound you want to get (sound pressure level, frequency level).

Operating voltage: Electromagnetic buzzer, from 1.5 to 24V, piezoelectric type from 3V to 220V are feasible, but generally piezoelectric or voltage is recommended to have more than 9V to obtain a larger sound.

Current consumption: Electromagnetic voltage varies from tens to hundreds of milliamperes. Piezoelectric saves more power. A few milliamperes can operate normally, and when the buzzer starts, instantaneously. Need to consume about three times the current,

Drive mode: Both types of buzzer have self-excited type, so long as they are connected to DC, they will sound, because the built-in drive circuit is in the buzzer. Because of the different operation principle, the electromagnetic buzzer The device uses 1/2 square wave to drive, piezoelectric square wave can have better sound output.

Size: The size of the buzzer will affect the volume level, the frequency of the frequency, the electromagnetic minimum from 7mm to the maximum 25mm, the piezoelectric type from 12mm to 50mm or more.

Connection method: Commonly used pins (DIP), wire, patch (SMD), piezo-type, and locking screws.

Sound pressure: The buzzer usually uses the distance of 10cm as the standard for testing. The distance doubles, and it will probably attenuate 6dB. Conversely, if the distance is doubled, it will increase 6dB. The electromagnetic buzzer can reach the level of 85dB/10cm. Piezoelectrics can do very loudly. Common alarms are mostly made of piezoelectric buzzer.

Homemade simple buzzer steps
Self-made simple buzzer

Required supplies: iron bolts, wires, transparent plastic, boxes, tins, scissors, wood, clips, about 6 cm long

Production Method:

(1) Prepare the electromagnet M. Wind around 100 turns of the iron bolt about 6 cm long. Leave 5 cm at the end of the wire for the lead. Use a transparent tape to glue the coil so that the coil is not loosened and then tape it with a tape. The electromagnet on the box is ready

(2) Preparation of shrapnel P: Cut out a long iron piece with a width of about 2 cm from the tin can box, bend it at a right angle, connect one lead of the electromagnet to the shrapnel, and then glue the shrapnel against the wood board.

(3) Use the paper clip as the contact Q, use the book to put the paper clip up, stick it with tape, lead a wire, as shown in the figure to connect the circuit.

(4) Adjust the distance between M and P (by moving the box) so that the electromagnet can attract the shrapnel, adjust the distance between the contact and the shrapnel, so that they can just touch, you can hear the bee sound after power.
