LiquidCrystal_SSD1306

Developed by Neil McNeight based on Arduino and other Open Source libraries.

Description

Text only library for monochrome organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays. For all Arduino boards.

This library allows an Arduino board to control OLED displays based on the SSD1306 (or a compatible) chipset, which is found on most OLED panels. The library works with an I2C interface, in addition to the reset control line. It was originally designed to be a small library for ATtiny85-based boards (Trinket, Gemma, etc.) but it is compatible with all Arduino boards.

Required Libraries

1. Either Wire or TinyWireM

Installation

1. Change directory to your Arduino sketch directory
2. cd libraries
3. mkdir LiquidCrystal_SSD1306
4. cd LiquidCrystal_SSD1306
5. git clone https://github.com/McNeight/LiquidCrystal_SSD1306.git .
6. Start Arduino IDE.
7. LiquidCrystal_SSD1306 example is located at, File--->Example--->LiquidCrystal_SSD1306--->HelloWorld

Compatibility

Tested with

1. Adafruit Monochrome 0.96" 128x64 OLED graphic display
2. Sabernetics Tech Electronics 0.84" OLED Display 96�16
3. SainSmart 0.69" I2C IIC Serial 96X16 White OLED Module

History
