SparkFun gator:microphone - micro:bit Accessory Board
Visualize Sound
The SparkFun gator:microphone micro:bit Accessory Board provides a binary indication of the presence of sound and an analog representation of its amplitude. As part of SparkFun's gator:bit series of alligator-clippable accessories, it can be easily interfaced with the micro:bit or other microcontrollers via the SparkFun gator:bit.
