Product Description

Sparkfun Spectrum Shield

About This Item

Get ready to take your Arduino projects to the next level with the Sparkfun Spectrum Shield. This powerful shield allows you to split a stereo audio input into 7-bands per channel, giving you full control over the amplitude of each channel using the ADC on your Arduino. With the Spectrum Shield, the possibilities are endless. You can use it to control LEDs, motors, pumps, relays, or any other electronic component - all with sound.

Imagine creating a sound visualizer that reacts to music, or adding sound activation to your microcontroller projects. This shield opens up a whole new world of possibilities. The Spectrum Shield features the MSGEQ7 graphic equalizer display filter, which allows you to split a stereo audio input into 7-bands per channel. This means you can analyze the amplitude of each band using the ADC on your Arduino.

The shield is equipped with two 1/8 stereo jacks – one for the stereo input and the other for a pass-through output. This allows you to connect the Spectrum Shield in-line between your audio source and your stereo system without any interruption. This updated version of the Spectrum Shield is designed to fit the Arduino R3 layout. Please note that soldering your own headers is required.

Don't worry, we have the recommended products section below to help you with that. This collaboration between Sparkfun and Ben Moyes of Bliptronics ensures that you are getting a high-quality product with excellent support and continued development. Plus, with each sale of this shield, a portion goes back to Ben Moyes and Bliptronics. Take your Arduino projects to new heights with the Sparkfun Spectrum Shield. Add sound visualization, music playback, or sound processing capabilities with ease.

Get yours now and unlock a whole new dimension of creativity.
