How to use OLED display
- Wiring diagram:
0.96 OLED display | Raspberry Pi GPIO |
---|---|
Vcc | 3.3V (physical pin No.1) |
GND | GND |
SDA | SDA |
SCL | SCL |
Driver Install:
Method 1
0.96 inch OLED usage please refer to: [ https://wiki.52pi.com/index.php/S-0005 ] After installing ssd1306 driver, you can refer to the example code to create your own python script to show system informations.
Method 2
How to enable OLED 0.96
- 1. Turn on `i2c function` by using `sudo raspi-config` -> `interface options` -> `i2c` -> `enable` -> `yes`.
- 2. Check if the screen has been recognized by Raspberry Pi
i2cdetect -y 1
if encount `command not found` error, please install `i2c-tools` by using `sudo apt update && sudo apt -y install i2c-tools`.
- 3. Install dependencies libraries:
sudo apt -y install python3 python3-pip python3-pil libjpeg-dev zlib1g-dev libfreetype6-dev liblcms2-dev libopenjp2-7 libtiff5
- 4. Grant privilleges to user `pi`
sudo usermod -a -G gpio,i2c pi
- 5. Download sample code from this repo:
git clone https://github.com/rm-hull/luma.examples.git cd luma.examples/
- 6. Install the dependencies
sudo -H pip3 install -e .
- 7. Entering into example folder and test it.
cd luma.examples/examples/ python3 sys_info.py
