- Interactive art installation that responds to noise
Compatibility
This kit works with any WitBlox base and other WitBlox modules. Also compatible with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and any microcontroller accepting 3.3V–5V logic. The 3-pin header connects easily to breadboards or directly to GPIO pins.
Wiring Notes
Connect VCC to 5V, GND to GND, and OUT to a digital input pin. Use the onboard potentiometer to adjust detection threshold. For microcontrollers with 3.3V logic, powering at 5V is safe as the output drops to 3.3V internally.
Why Buy from Compoden
Every component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.
Is this compatible with Arduino Uno?
Yes, connect VCC to 5V, GND to GND, and OUT to any digital pin like D2. Use digitalRead to detect sound.
Can I use this without a WitBlox base?
Yes, the sensor module itself can be used standalone with jumper wires on a breadboard or directly on any microcontroller.
How does the sensitivity adjustment work?
Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase sensitivity (detect softer sounds) or counterclockwise to decrease it, reducing false triggers.
