Piezo Element

Layout symbol

Thin disc that bends when a voltage is applied, making a click or tone, and gives out a voltage when it's bent or tapped. As a sound maker it needs a changing signal, like a passive buzzer; as a knock sensor, put a resistor (about 1 MΩ) across it and read it with an analog input.
