How do you power a buzzer?
Because piezo buzzers include oscillators, all you need to do to power one is attach it to a DC current source. Attach the positive (red) lead of a 9-volt battery connector to a push button switch. Insert the exposed wire at the end of the positive lead through the hole in one terminal of the switch.
Step 3: The Connections
The Connections are pretty simple: Connect the Supply wire (RED) of the buzzer to the Digital Pin 9 of the Arduino through a 100 ohm resistor.
It's simple, tone(buzzer, 1000) sends a 1KHz sound signal to pin 9, delay(1000) pause the program for one second and noTone(buzzer) stops the signal sound. The loop() routine will make this run again and again making a short beeping sound.
The wire attach to LED short leg, then the same wire connect to GND on the board. The wire connect to 10k resistor empty leg, then the same wire connect to GND on the board. The wire connect to +5V, then the same wire attach to LDR empty leg. The wire connect to digital 12, then attach to buzzer long leg.
Passive buzzers need an AC voltage to produce sound. An easy way to tell active and passive buzzers apart is by connecting them to a DC voltage source like a 9 volt battery. The buzzers are polarized, so check which terminal is positive and which terminal is negative before connecting it to a battery.
Magnetic buzzers are essentially current-driven devices, typically requiring more than 20mA to operate. The applied voltage can be as low as 1.5V or up to about 12V.

It includes two pins namely positive and negative. The positive terminal of this is represented with the '+' symbol or a longer terminal. This terminal is powered through 6Volts whereas the negative terminal is represented with the '-'symbol or short terminal and it is connected to the GND terminal.
In a buzzer, the simplest sort of doorbell, an electromagnet is used to operate a self-interrupting circuit. When the circuit is closed, the electromagnet is magnetized so it pulls up on the contact arm. This breaks the doorbell circuit, which shuts off the electromagnet.
The buzzer is a sounding device that can convert audio signals into sound signals. It is usually powered by DC voltage. It is widely used in alarms, computers, printers and other electronic products as sound devices.
How does an active buzzer work?
An active buzzer generates the sound itself. You basically just turn it on or off. A passive buzzer needs a signal source that provides the sound signal.
You just need to connect positive terminal of LED with the one end of resistor and then connect another end of resistor with the positive terminal of Battery. Then connect the negative terminal of LED with the negative terminal of Battery. This Negative Terminal of Battery is also referred as the Ground.
Connect the positive terminal of the 12 volt power supply to one side of the resistor. Connect the other side of the resistor to the anode of the LED. Check the LED data sheet to identify the anode and cathode. The cathode is commonly the shorter lead and located nearest any flat side of the LED.
Buzzers can be categorized into two different types – active buzzers and passive buzzers. An active buzzer has a built-in oscillator so it can produce sound with only a DC power supply. A passive buzzer does not have a built-in oscillator, so it needs an AC audio signal to produce sound.
Active and Passive buzzers:
Active buzzers can produce a single tone which is tuned to 2khz by most of the manufacturers. On the other hand, Passive buzzers need a triggered wave to produce sound. So, these passive buzzers can produce a number of different tones based on the input frequency of signal.
The buzzer needs to be connected between the collector and the positive terminal of your battery. If you want to put the buzzer on the low side, you need to use a PNP transistor. The transistor itself doesn't really matter, and any regular transistor will do.

How the volume of a buzzer/ brightness of a bulb is affected by the number and voltage of cells used. Adding more batteries increases voltage, therefore making bulbs brighter, buzzers louder and motors move faster.
A speaker can play all kinds of sounds, however due to its built in circuits, a buzzer may not be capable of playing tones other than its oscillator's tone.
Buzzers can be categorized into two different types – active buzzers and passive buzzers. An active buzzer has a built-in oscillator so it can produce sound with only a DC power supply. A passive buzzer does not have a built-in oscillator, so it needs an AC audio signal to produce sound.
Is a buzzer a power source?
A magnetic buzzer is a current driven device, but the power source is typically a voltage. The current through the coil is determined by the applied voltage and the impedance of the coil. Piezo buzzers are used in similar applications as magnetic buzzers.
Unlike magnetic buzzers that have a narrow operating voltage of somewhere between one and 16 volts, piezo buzzers can typically operate anywhere between three and 250 volts.

The transistor allows the buzzer to be powered from a different voltage to the Arduino. Any NPN transistor that can handle the current drawn by the buzzer can be used. With a PN2222 and 2k2 base resistor, the circuit can be used to operate a buzzer that draws up to about 200mA.
In normal English usage, a buzzer is a device that makes one fixed sound when it is activated, but a (loud)speaker reproduces the audio signal that it receives. Of course a very small speaker won't give a good reproduction of speech or music, but at least it attempts to do that.
