Adjusting a fan's speed using an Arduino is a great way to learn about PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) and motor control. With just a potentiometer and some simple wiring, you can create a smooth, manual speed adjustment system. This setup is useful for cooling electronics, ventilation projects, or any application where adjustable airflow is needed.

Home Alone has since been considered one of the best Christmas films and Somewhere in My Memory has been nominated as best original song. We wanted to recreate the melody of the film's theme song with a piezo buzzer and share with you. Buzzer is used to generate sound, beep or even melody of a song. It can be found in alarm devices, computers, timers and confirmation of user input such as a mouse click or keystroke.

The KY-016 is capable of producing wide range of different colors by mixing blue, green and red lights. The RGB LED module will not require any limiting resistors. Those resistors are already integrated in the circuit, and so 5V can be directly used as power input.

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino boards are able to read inputs - light on a sensor, a finger on a button, or a Twitter message - and turn it into an output - activating a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so you use the Arduino programming language and the Arduino Software (IDE).

The Simpsons, that legendary animated series we all know and love, has become a cultural phenomenon. With its hilarious take on family life in Springfield, it's an absolute classic. We decided to have a bit of fun and recreate the show's iconic theme song using a piezo buzzer.

Buzzer is used to generate sound, beep or even melody of a song. It can be found in alarm devices, computers, timers and confirmation of user input such as a mouse click or keystroke. A piezo buzzer is not like a regular speaker that you might think of. It uses a material that actually changes shape when you apply electricity to it which in turn creates noise. The faster you bend the material, the higher the pitch of the noise that is produced.
