The post explains how electret microphone devices work, through appropriate diagrams and formulas. What’s a Microphone A microphone is a device designed for transforming weak sound vibrations into tiny electrical pulses, which can be then amplified through a power amplifier over a loudspeaker for achieving a louder reproduction of the sound. The most common and … Read moreHow Electret Microphones Work – Full Tutorial and Diagram
In this article we are going to see, what force sensing resistor is, their construction, specification and finally how to interface it with Arduino microcontroller. What is Force Sensing Resistor A force sensing resistor senses the force applied to it and correspondingly changes its resistance. The resistance is inversely proportional to force. This means when … Read moreForce Sensing Resistor Explained
