adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305 1.4.2

Framebuf (non-displayio) driver for SSD1305 displays

Introduction

Framebuf (non-displayio) driver for SSD1305 displays

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython

• Bus Device

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ssd1305

Usage Example

# Basic example of clearing and drawing pixels on a SSD1305 OLED display.
# This example and library is meant to work with Adafruit CircuitPython API.
# Author: Tony DiCola
# License: Public Domain

# Import all board pins.
from board import SCL, SDA
import busio

# Import the SSD1305 module.
import adafruit_ssd1305


# Create the I2C interface.
i2c = busio.I2C(SCL, SDA)

# Create the SSD1305 OLED class.
# The first two parameters are the pixel width and pixel height.  Change these
# to the right size for your display!
display = adafruit_ssd1305.SSD1305_I2C(128, 32, i2c)
# Alternatively you can change the I2C address of the device with an addr parameter:
#display = adafruit_ssd1305.SSD1305_I2C(128, 32, i2c, addr=0x31)

# Clear the display.  Always call show after changing pixels to make the display
# update visible!
display.fill(0)

display.show()
