Component Introduction
A buzzer or beeper is a device which can generate audio. An active buzzer will
generate a tone using an internal oscillator, so all that is needed is a DC voltage.
A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals
and electrical power. The transistor can also be used to control the circuit conductive
or disconnected. And the transistor is divided into two kinds, one is NPN like S8050,
another one is PNP like S8550.
