10.7 Using the Buzzer Output GPIO7

As Alternate Function, the GPIO7 is controlled by the firmware that depends on the function implemented internally.

This setup places always the GPIO7 pin in OUTPUT direction and the corresponding function must be activated properly by AT#SRP command (refer to AT commands specification).

Also in this case, the dummy value for the pin state can be both “0” or “1”.

Send the command

AT#GPIO=7, 1, 2<cr>:

Wait for response

OK

Send the command

AT#SRP=3

The GPIO7 pin will be set as Alternate Function pin with its dummy logic status set to HIGH value.

The "Alternate function” permits your application to easily implement Buzzer feature with some small hardware extension of your application as shown in the next sample figure.
