Grove Water Atomization
Grove - Water Atomization is a fine Grove module for you to develop an atomizer or an atomizer module in your applications easily. With a few simple steps, you can prototype an atomizer. It has grove interface which make it easily applied to plenty of applications. A humidifier is a basic application it can be built with, you can develop more advanced and interesting objects with digital scent technology and any other situation in which atomization is required.
Features

Get started
Material required
Seeeduino v4.2 x 1
Grove - Base shield v2 x 1
Grove - Wire x 1
Preparations
Refer to following guides to build an appropriate IDE:
Note We have chosen Seeeduino in this case.
Hardware connections
A little demo
Note We also need a Grove - Touch Sensor in this demo and also connect it to A5(Use as digital pin).
1.Copy code below to Arduino IDE editor.
2.Place some tissue into a trimmed paper cup filled with water, put ultrasonic transducer onto tissue.
Note The bottom side is the side with hollow which is supposed to face downside. Let bottom of transducer plate sink into the water and keep top side above water. The function of tissue is lead water to the transducer and keep upper side of transducer above water.
3.Upload code to main control board.
4.Now if you touch Grove touch sensor, you can see vapor produced.
Caution Do not touch transducer interface pins directly because peak output voltage of Drier board can be 65V.
Caution The inductor L2 (marked in red rectangle above) will be heated. So do not touch it directly.
