What should I add to this code to increase the volume for the sound in the speaker..??

Hi,
nice sound ! where does it comes from?

[jremington]

To increase the speaker volume, you need an amplifier. Tell us about your output circuit.

[deladriere]

@jremington or check this out too : cba63c0

[jremington]

I tried the programmatic approach mentioned above, and found that the output volume of the code can't be increased very much without distorting the output. A suitable audio amplifier on the output is definitely the way to go.

You may need a low pass filter on the output to prevent the high frequency PWM from getting into the amplifier.

[deladriere]

@jremington Yep agreed! I had also experienced distortion with this piece of code, so of course an amp circuit is the solution

[tanmayi06]

      To increase the speaker volume, you need an amplifier. Tell us about your output circuit.

In the output I just connected a digital ir sensor to the Arduino,2 LED,s to the Arduino and 2 pins to the speaker..(one is to the gnd nd the other to digital pin 3..??)

Thank q for ur reply..:)

[jremington]

You will damage the Arduino, connecting a pin to a speaker. Use an amplifier of some sort.

[ArminJo]

Use the Arduino Talkie library and connect the Speaker (> 32Ohm) betwen the non inverted / 3 and Inverted / 11output.
