recently i bought this oled display .

enter image description here

http://www.wvshare.com/product/0.96inch-OLED-A.htm

how can i connect it with arduino . Driver Chip is SSD1306 . Supported Interface are 3-wire SPI, 4-wire SPI, I2C . it's can display two colors Yellow and Blue.

i need some guidance on how to hook it up with arduino lets say using i2c protocol . and is there any existing library ?

Note : on the wvshare website there's only code sample for STM32 Microcontrollers .

  • Did you read the datasheet? adafruit.com/datasheets/SSD1306.pdf

    Are you prepared to resolder the resistors on the back? Sep 20, 2014 at 14:39
  • @jippie i read the datasheet. it seems i can use the DIN and CLK pin as SDA and SCL. i tried that but its not working . Ignacio, which resistor ? i know some basic soldering. thanks

  • You have to remove the 0-ohm resistor BS1 from the 0 position and move it the the 1 position.

  • has anyone tried it with i2c? been 2 days now trying to make it work .resolder the resistors but dosn't want to work. and after the soldering wich library should i choose ? Nov 3, 2019 at 18:17

it's working with u8glib. but i am using 4-wire SPI.

constructor for U8GLIB

U8GLIB_SSD1306_128X64 u8g(13, 11, 10, 9,8);

Pin configuration was

Arduino -   Oled Display
13 -    CLK
11 -    DIN (SI)
10 -    CS
9 - D/C (A0)
8 - RES

the reset pin is required. i used 3.3v arduino pin for vcc .

    Yes, that is what the silkscreened chart shows the installed resistors as selecting for operating mode. Gerben had been suggesting you could do i2c if you changed them. May 19, 2015 at 18:15
