Spectrum Analyzer
- Overview
- Commands
- Samples
- On-Module Code
A 7-band audio spectrum analyzer that measures incoming audio at fixed frequencies: 63 Hz, 160 Hz, 400 Hz, 1 kHz, 2.5 kHz, 6.25 kHz, and 16 kHz. The module runs the band filtering and level detection internally — your host code reads seven clean levels with simple text commands over any supported interface, no FFT or filter math required.
Common uses: music-reactive LED installations, classroom signal-processing labs, beat-detection projects, sound-visualization art, and any project that needs to know what frequencies are loud right now.

Modules ship without cables to reduce waste. Some specialty boards include a USB cable; for the rest, see Cables to add cables to your order.
Commands this module accepts. See Samples for runnable code in popular host languages.
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
UpdBnd() | Update all 7 bands. Values are stored in a1[] array (0 to 100). |
DVer() | This driver version. |
Peek under the hood
The script below is this module's driver — it teaches the hardware how to respond to the commands listed above. It ships pre-loaded from the factory; most users never need to open it.

This sample runs in MicroBlocks on a any host board that's connected/tethered to this module, or a chain of modules. This module keeps its official DUELink firmware and module driver and responds to commands from the connected MicroBlocks-running host. New here? See the MicroBlocks page.
There are two ways to use it:
Open the full sample — the complete project (the module's library plus a ready-to-run example) opens directly on the MicroBlocks website.
Add just the libraries to your own project — copy the link, then in your MicroBlocks project click Add Library → Cloud and paste it. This loads this module's libraries into your project without replacing your current work.
Copy Library LinkCode that runs directly on this module's MCU. See how On-Module Code allows modules to run standalone.
- Script
- Arduino IDE
This example runs using the default DUELink Internal Engine using its Scripting Language, and it expects the module's driver to be loaded first, see the Commands Tab.
