BUZZER Output
The signal BUZZER outputs a square wave at the desired tone frequency. The tone frequencies are
programmable and can be re-programmed on-the-fly to generate monophonic audio ringtones or
alert tones. The tone level can also be adjusted in 4dB steps, or it can be muted.
Features
The signal BUZZER can be used in conjunction with an external transistor/MOSFET for driving a
buzzer in order to give a maximum current of 100mA (PEAK) and an average of 40mA, depending on
application requirement.

Be mindful of the maximum frequency and the minimum/maximum duty cycle. There is a limitation due to the
RC environment. The amplitude modulation becomes less fine when the set limits are reached.
