Introduction
The
µOLED-96-PROP
is an extremely compact and a cost effective ready to go 'drop in'
embedded display module that will deliver ‘stand-alone’ functionality to your project. The
module represents a unique combination of a powerful micro controller, the Propeller chip
from Parallax Inc, a 0.96” 96x64 pixel 65K full colour OLED display and a micro-SD memory
card socket capable of supporting up to 2GB of storage; all in an incredibly tiny 27mm X
23mm package. The module is designed to provide your projects with integrated
functionality right out of the box.
The
µOLED-96-PROP
allows you to leverage the extensive library of Propeller Objects
already written, to make the module into a complete project in record time. The
µOLED-
96-PROP
is supplied with a prototype SPIN Object that handles the display initialization
and provides sample Methods for low-level graphics functions. It is intended as a shell, into
which, you can further program and develop the functionality that you need for your project
design.

Features
The
µOLED-96-PROP
module is aimed at being integrated into a variety of different
applications facilitating the designer to quickly and cost effectively complete a product and
thus reduce ‘time to market’. The module can also be used as a tiny development
environment to explore the features of the Propeller chip and the OLED display technology.
Propeller chip based design.
96 x 64 pixel resolution, 256 or 65K true to life colour OLED screen.
0.96” size diagonal OLED display. Module Size: 32.7 x 23 x 5.2mm.
No backlighting with near 180° viewing angle.
Low power design. Voltage supply from 3.3V to 6.3V external DC source.
Simple 5 pin interface provides the programming interface and power to the Propeller
chip, the OLED display and the µSD memory card.
Four General Purpose Propeller I/O pins (plus dedicated Rx and Tx) available for
interfacing additional devices.
A single straight 10 pin male header provides access to power, programming interface
and I/O pins.
Application boards can be piggy-backed via the 10 pin header for an overall very small
and low profile design.
Onboard micro-SD (µSD) memory card adaptor can be used for storing Propeller
programs, icons, images, animations, movie clips as well as data logging. 64Mb to 2Gig
µSD memory cards can be purchased separately.
Optional USB to Serial interface via the 4D micro-USB,
µUSB-MB5
or
µUSB-CE5
modules.
Compatible with the Propeller Tool IDE for programming and user application
development.
Direct control of display functions using SPIN or Propeller Assembler code.
