Works its always a plus

Got what was advertised. The only thing that confuses me is the thickness of the CPB. It's pretty easy to get started with my project. I used a Raspberry Pi Zero W and the standard fbtft_device module built into Raspian (Jesse) to copy the framebuffer to the OLED. You need fbcp. Notes: This was for Retropie 4.3 rpi1_zero, I tried using the latest build (Buster at the time) but it seemed to run slower than Jesse. This screen will not display anything until the driver starts. So don't be nervous…

Pros
  • Supports 4 wire SPI OR 3 wire SPI configurable via built in resistor
Cons
  • ---

Works great with vendor library or Adafruit SSD1351

SPI than anything else. I started with Arduino Nano but switched to Espressif ESP-32 for more speed as my application requires speed from the microcontroller. Watch out for #define pins and enable SPI as nothing will happen if SPI is not enabled or the wrong pins are selected.

Pros
  • Comes with development resources and manual (examples for Raspberry Pi/Arduino/STM32)
Cons
  • Secret

LIVE DATA DISPLAY

DEMO WORKS BUT TRY TO DISPLAY SENSOR TEXT, FLIKING IS TERRIBLE! ucg.setFont(ucg_font_inb21_mr); The font works much better!

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • unreliable

Works great with vendor or library Adafruit SSD1351

I'm still new to Arduino, it took me a while to get it working but I've learned more about SPI than anything else. I started with Arduino Nano but switched to Espressif ESP-32 for more speed as my application requires speed from the microcontroller. Watch out for #define pins and enable SPI as nothing will happen if SPI is not enabled or the wrong pins are selected.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Quality
