This is a P8X32A/Propeller, P2X8C4M64P/Propeller 2 driver object for US2066-based alphanumeric OLED displays

IMPORTANT: This software is meant to be used with the spin-standard-library (P8X32A) or p2-spin-standard-library (P2X8C4M64P). Please install the applicable library first before attempting to use this code, otherwise you will be missing several files required to build the project.

Salient Features

  • I2C connection at up to 400kHz (P1, P2)
  • SPI connection at up to 1MHz (P1: 25kHz bytecode or 1MHz PASM, P2: up to 1MHz)
  • Set contrast level
  • Set cursor attributes: blinking, inverted, shape
  • Set text attributes: double-height, 5 and 6-pixel width text
  • Inverted/normal display
  • Display mirroring (horizontal/vertical/both)

Requirements

P1/SPIN1:

  • spin-standard-library
  • P1/SPIN1: 1 extra core/cog for the PASM I2C/SPI engine (none if the bytecode-based engine is used)
  • terminal.common.spinh (provided by spin-standard-library)

P2/SPIN2:

  • p2-spin-standard-library
  • terminal.common.spin2h (provided by p2-spin-standard-library)

Compiler Compatibility

Processor Language Compiler Backend Status
P1 SPIN1 FlexSpin (6.9.4) Bytecode OK
P1 SPIN1 FlexSpin (6.9.4) Native/PASM Runtime issues
P2 SPIN2 FlexSpin (6.9.4) NuCode Runtime issues
P2 SPIN2 FlexSpin (6.9.4) Native/PASM2 OK

(other versions or toolchains not listed are not supported, and may or may not work)

Limitations

  • No scrolling support (chipset has horizontal scrolling support)
  • No support for custom characters
  • No support for parallel interface
