This driver consists mostly of the work of Radomir Dopieralski (@deshipu). I added a few functions and changed the existing ones so it matches better my needs for a project.
Use OLED display with the SH1106 driver with SPI or I2C. It is based on the MicroPython framebuffer class and consists wrappers for this class as well as special methods for controlling the display.
The SH1106 supports next to thers the I2C or SPI interface. The connection depends on the interface used and the number of devices in the system. Especially the ESP8266 with their small number of GPIO ports may require optimization.
SCL and SDA have to be connected as minimum. The driver also resets the device by the reser PIN. If your are low on GPIO ports, reset can be applied by a dedicated circuit, like the MCP100-300.
SCLK, MOSI, D/C are always required. If the display is the only SPI device in the set-up, CS may be tied to GND. Reset has also to be connected, unless it is driven by an external circuit.
The driver contains the SH1106 class and the derived SH1106_I2C and SH1106_SPI classes. Besides the constructors, the methods are the same.
display = sh1106.SH1106_I2C(width, height, i2c, reset, address)
- width and height define the size of the display
- i2c is an I2C object, which has to be created beforehand and tells the ports for SDA and SCL.
- res is the GPIO Pin object for the reset connection. It will be initialized by the driver.
If it is not needed,
Nonehas to be supplied. - adr is the I2C address of the display. Default 0x3c or 60
display = sh1106.SH1106_SPI(width, height, spi, dc, res, cs)
- width and height define the size of the display
- spi is an SPI object, which has to be created beforehand and tells the ports for SCLJ and MOSI. MISO is not used.
- dc is the GPIO Pin object for the Data/Command selection. It will be initialized by the driver.
- res is the GPIO Pin object for the reset connection. It will be initialized by the driver.
If it is not needed, it can be set to
Noneor omitted. In this case the default value ofNoneapplies. - cs is the GPIO Pin object for the CS connection. It will be initialized by the driver.
If it is not needed, it can be set to
Noneor omitted. In this case the default value ofNoneapplies.
display.init_display()
Initializes the display, fills it with the color 0 and displays the empty screen. It also tries
to apply the reset signal, if it is connected ( = not None).
display.poweron()
display.poweroff()
display.sleep(state)
Enable and disable the display. display.sleep(True) is identical to display.poweroff(), display.sleep(False) is equivalent to display.poweron(). Other than the literal meaning could tell, it does not switch the power line(Vcc) of the display.
display.contrast(level)
Set the display's contrast to the given level. The range is 0..255. For a single color display like the SH1106, this is actually the brightness.
display.invert(flag)
Invert the content of the display, depending on the value of Flag. This is immediately effective for the whole display.
- flag = True Invert
- flag = False Normal mode
display.rotate(flag[, update=True])
Rotate the content of the display, depending on the value of Flag. To become fully effective, you have to run display.show(). If the parameter update is True, show() is called by the function itself.
- flag = True: Rotate by 180 degree
- flag = False: Normal mode
Display the content of the frame buffer on the display.
display.show()
The usual program flow would set-up/update the frame buffer content with a sequence of calls an the call display.show() for the content to be shown (see examples below).
The below listed display methods of the framebuffer class are mirrored in this class. For a documentation, please look into the MicroPython documentation at http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/pyboard/library/framebuf.html?highlight=framebuf#module-framebuf:
- fill
- fill_rect
- line
- vline
- hline
- rect
- pixel
- scroll
- text
- blit
The text is displayed with the built-in 8x8 pixel font, which support the ASCII character set values 32..127. The text overlays the previous content; 'on' pixels in a character will not overwrite existing 'off' pixels. If you want to rewrite an area of the screen, you have to clear it beforehand, e.g. with the fill_rect() method.
Remark: If you want to use other font styles and sizes, have a look at the work of Peter Hinch (@pythoncoder) at https://github.com/peterhinch/micropython-font-to-py
display.reset()
Attempt to reset the display by toggling the reset line. This is obviously only effective is reset is connected. Otherwise it's a No-Op.
