Adafruit Monochrome 2.7" 128x64 OLED Graphic Display Module Kit

This 2.7" diagonal monochrome OLED display offers high readability, featuring 128x64 white OLED pixels. Its self-illuminating nature eliminates the need for a backlight, ensuring high contrast and reduced power consumption. Ideal for graphic displays due to its crisp quality.

The SSD1325 driver chip supports two communication modes: 8-bit or SPI, with the SPI mode requiring only 4 to 5 wires. The display needs a 3.3V power supply and 3.3V logic levels, with an included breadboard-friendly level shifter for use with 5V logic devices like Arduino.

On average, the display consumes about 50-150mA from a 3.3V supply, adjusted by a built-in boost converter. Each package includes an assembled OLED module with a nice bezel and 4 mounting holes, a 74HC4050 level shifter, a 220uF capacitor, and a header for soldering. The module may arrive in 8-bit mode, switchable to SPI through soldering.

Our detailed tutorial and Arduino library provide example code for controlling text and graphics. Suitable for microcontrollers with over 1K of RAM, the library supports text, bitmaps, and shapes. To maintain uniform brightness, switch off pixels when not in use to prevent dimming after 1000 hours of continuous use.
