demo code
Only generate very simple sound for testing.
#define SOUNDOUT_PIN 9
void setup(void){
//Set the sound out pin to output mode
pinMode(SOUNDOUT_PIN,OUTPUT);
}
void loop(void){
//Generate sound by toggling the I/O pin High and Low
//Generate a 1KHz tone. set the pin high for 500uS then
//low for 500uS to make the period 1ms or 1KHz.
//Set the pin high and delay for 1/2 a cycle of 1KHz, 500uS.
digitalWrite(SOUNDOUT_PIN,HIGH);
delayMicroseconds(500);
//Set the pin low and delay for 1/2 a cycle of 1KHz, 500uS.
digitalWrite(SOUNDOUT_PIN,LOW);
delayMicroseconds(500);
