0.96" 128x64 IIC/I2C SPI OLED Display Module

In contrast to LCD technology, Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) displays do not require a backlight and are regarded as the ultimate technology for the next generation of flat-panel displays.  OLED displays are composed of a thin, multi-layered organic film placed between an anode and cathode, which are made up of electric conductive transparent Indium Tin Oxide.  The multi-layered organic film includes a Hole Transporting Layer, Emission Layer and Electron Transporting Layer.  By applying an appropriate electrical voltage, the holes and electrons are injected into the Emission Layer from the anode and cathode respectively and combine to form excitons, after which electroluminescence occurs.

These highly versatile screens are fully compatible with Arduino, 51 Series, MSP430 Series, STM32 / 2, CSR IC, etc.  There are both 6 or 7-wire SPI and 4-wire IIC/I2C connections to choose from (SPI is faster, but has more wires) and a variety of different colour options (please select when purchasing).  Please see below for detailed specifications, operating instructions and working Arduino code example.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

1 x 0.96" 128x64 SSD1306 OLED Display Module (Colour and connection option as selected at time of purchase)

Please Note: Although these boards do adhere to the written description on my listing, there can sometimes be minor differences between batches (e.g. Oval rather than round screw holes, 6 or 7 pin SPI, differing order of pins, etc).  I have included a number of examples in my listing photos.  If you have any specific requirements, then please message me before purchasing.

INSTRUCTIONS

Recent eBay policy changes prevent me from including links in this listing to external sites where you can find useful information and download tested code libraries and drivers for Windows and the Apple Mac.  However, in compliance with eBay's new policy, I now provide full details of these links in your order confirmation email, which will be sent within 2 working days of purchase.

To operate this module, you will need to download the 'Arduino IDE' and the 'Adafruit SSD1306 Code Library'.  You may also find the 'SSD1306 I2C Tutorial Video' link helpful.

Required Code Library Adjustments

In the Adafruit SSD1306 Library Header File (Adafruit_SSD1306.h) within your 'Libraries' folder, ensure that '#define SSD1306_128_64' is selected in the 'SSD1306 Displays' section.

If you wish to use the code examples contained within the Adafruit SSD1306 Library, you will need to delete the following immediately prior to the 'void setup()' line:

#if (SSD1306_LCDHEIGHT != 64)

#error("Height incorrect, please fix Adafruit_SSD1306.h!");

#endif

The I2C code examples included within the Adafruit SSD1306 library may be used with the following minor change as these modules use I2C address 0x3C rather than 0x3D:

display.begin(SSD1306_SWITCHCAPVCC, 0x3C);  //Initialize with the I2C address 0x3C.

6 or 7-Wire SPI Connection

Please Note: These modules come with either 6 or 7 pins depending on stock at time of purchase.  The only difference is that the 6-pin version does not have a dedicated CS pin, but otherwise functions exactly the same.

Prior to powering up the development board and OLED module, make the following connections (I have tested these on the Arduino Uno, Nano, Pro-Mini and Mega 2560):

Thereafter, power up the development board and OLED module, upload your code and watch and see!

4-Wire IIC/I2C Connection

Prior to powering up the development board and OLED module, make the following connections (I have tested these on the Arduino Uno, Nano, Pro-Mini and Mega 2560):

Thereafter, power up the development board and OLED module, upload your code and watch and see!

EXAMPLE ARDUINO CODE

The following Arduino code example uses the Adafruit SSD1306 Library (see link at order confirmation email) and can be used for both SPI and IIC/I2C connections; simply adjust the code where indicated:

#include <Adafruit_SSD1306.h>

//Define SPI Connections:

#define OLED_MOSI   9

#define OLED_CLK   10

#define OLED_DC    11

#define OLED_CS    12

#define OLED_RESET 13

//Remove comments (//) if using SPI connection:

//Adafruit_SSD1306 display(OLED_MOSI, OLED_CLK, OLED_DC, OLED_RESET, OLED_CS);

//Add comments (//) if using SPI connection:

Adafruit_SSD1306 display(OLED_RESET);

void setup()  

{               

  Serial.begin(9600);

  display.begin(SSD1306_SWITCHCAPVCC, 0x3C);  //Initialize with the I2C address 0x3C.

  display.clearDisplay();

  display.setTextSize(2);

  display.setTextColor(WHITE);

  display.setCursor(0,0);

  display.println("Welcome to");

  display.println("Karen's");

  display.setTextSize(3);

  display.println("e-Shop");

  display.drawLine(0, 59, 127, 59, WHITE);

  display.drawCircle(63, 59, 4, WHITE);

  display.display();

}
