Passive Buzzer

Use this buzzer to produce different tones, beeping sounds, or alert sounds.

This buzzer is a passive buzzer, which means that it requires an oscillating signal to produce sound. If you are looking for a buzzer that automatically produces sound with only DC power connected, then take a look at our Active Buzzer.

We have included a link to the Arduino tone melody tutorial, below under Resources, which you can use with an Arduino to produce different tones and jingles with this passive buzzer.
