KY-037 Microphone with GSM-Shield 2 Problem?

Official Hardware Retired GSM Shield
1

Hello,

There is a Problem with the Microphone, it does not get Audio.

While the Speaker works, the Microphone do not and I don't know if it's needed , but "there is no Code yet for the Microphone and Speaker".

I have tried two different Microphones, one with three and the other with four connectors.

The Connectors of the KY-037 Microphone are four (vcc, gnd, d0, a0).
The Connectors of the other Microphone(which looks similar) are three (vcc, gnd, out).

The GSM-shield 2 have on the backside, four Connections for Microphone (m1p, m1n, m2p, m2n) (n=negative, p=positive).
I used the m1p,m1n connections with vcc(m1p) and gnd(m1n). But where to wire the third Wire (out,d0 or a0) ?

In the link on page 49 you might find some technical details about the gsm-Processor : https://www.arduino.cc/en/uploads/Main/Quectel_M10_datasheet.pdf

It might be a Programing or a Hardware problem or both of it ?

Edit-1 :
Seems the Microphone needs base 5 Volt to work, so I got it from the Arduino.
Now I tried to connect (out) connector of the Microphone to the connection (m1p) of the GSM-module.
And (vcc) and (gnd) to the (5v) and (gnd) of the Arduino.

Result:
The activity Led's of the Microphone lights up , but there is still no Audio or just windy-sound.

No one with a similar Problem ?
Thanks

Okay, thank you, I will take care next time.

Hello,

Seems to work now, just it haves some interferences(noise) while speaking.

The base Voltage of the Microphone KY-037 might be 3.3V or 5V from the Arduino.

The Connections are (m1p) of the GSM Shield, to (A0) of the Microphone, with (D0) it does not work.
And (m1n) of the GSM Shield, to (GND) of the Arduino, and (GND) of the Microphone to (GND) of the Arduino.

The Probelm is the noise and the sensitivity of the Microphone.
Maybe I will try to reduce the noise by using Cable Clips Magnetic Rings.
And to adjust the Sensitvity of the Microphone, by using the Potentiometer.

Or perhaps using another Microphone e.g. : Electret Mic Breakout Board Hookup Guide - SparkFun Learn

I hope this was helpful, for other Readers.

Or If you have some Options, thank you.

Have a good time
