Xadow - RGB OLED 96*64

RBG OLED is a 16 bit 9664 dot matrix OLED display module with RGB color. It is based on SSD1331 module which is a single chip CMOS OLED/PLED driver with 288 segments and 64 common output, supporting up to 96 RGB 64 dot matrix display. It use SPI for communication.

Specifications


  • Power Voltage (VCC):3.3V
  • Display Color: RGB
  • Dot Matrix: 96*64
  • Operating temperature: -20~70 ℃
  • Dimensions: 25.43mm x 20.35mm

Pin Definition


We only need CS, DC, MOSI, SCLK 4 pins for communication. and

CS <==> A5

DC <==> 3

MOSI <==> 16

SCLK <==> 15

s
Please notice: heavy impact or stress on OLED will cause the breakdown of screen.

Getting Started


RGB OLED can display all kinds of graphics and characters. We offered lots of example sketches for you to play with it.

The hardware installation

Note: When connecting Xadow RGB OLED to Xadow Main Board, you should concern about the connection direction. The connection method is that the unfilled corner of one Xadow module need to connect to the right angle of another module(see four corners of each Xadow module).

Draw Line

Download RGB OLED Library and SGL Library, then install them to your Arduino Library. Open the DrawLine example sketch by the path: Files->Examples->RGB_OLED_96_64->examples->drawLine.
