Description:

The 0.96-inch OLED Display is a compact, high-performance screen that uses OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) technology. It is commonly used in a variety of small electronics and embedded system projects, particularly those that require low power consumption and high display quality. The display features 128×64 pixel resolution with a blue and black color scheme (often, other color variants like white or yellow may be available). It uses the SSD1306 driver IC and is typically connected to a microcontroller or a development board like Arduino or Raspberry Pi through I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit), a two-wire interface for data transfer.

This display is ideal for compact projects that require a small, high-contrast display without the need for a backlight. The OLED technology allows the screen to have deeper blacks and brighter colors than traditional LCD screens, offering better contrast and readability from different angles. The 0.96-inch OLED module is very popular for small gadgets, IoT devices, wearables, and prototyping.
