Sound Amplifier - Benjamin

In this step by step tutorial I will share how I try building an sound amplifier to help project and make the sound louder.

Before building a prototype, I watched a video to understand of what a sound amplifier is. I use lego pieces to build the prototype.



Supplies

  1. Lego pieces
  2. Microbit, buzzer, battery, battery holder and wires
  3. Makecode program (Software)
  4. Ruler to measure the prototype.


Microsoft Makecode is a browser-based coding platform for creating interactive and engaging programming experiences for those new to the world of programming. The platform provides the foundation for a tailored coding experience to create and run user programs on actual hardware (microbit in this case) or in a simulated target.

In this Instructable, we'll develop a simplified version of coding a random music piece and test the buzzer with a prototype build with lego pieces to experiment what structure can amplify sound. 


Please note that I'll be testing the music in the MakeCode simulator as well as with microbit. You can test/play your programs in the simulator if you do not have any micro:bit.
