1.3" OLED Display (SH1106, I2C)
A compact 1.3" monochrome OLED display with the SH1106 controller and I2C interface. Used in Workshop 03 - Connect and Read Sensor Data as an alternative to the CYD's TFT for showing sensor readings on a smaller, lower-power screen.
Features
- 1.3" diagonal display
- 128×64 pixel resolution
- SH1106 controller
- I2C interface (SDA, SCL)
- 3.3V or 5V operation
- High-contrast monochrome OLED
- Wide viewing angle, no backlight needed
- Low power consumption
Note on the SSD1306 vs SH1106
There's a near-identical 0.96" OLED that uses the SSD1306 controller. Library and addresses differ slightly. The CardanoThings workshops use the SH1106 variant, but for the SSD1306 see the inline reference block in Workshop 02 - Display Data.
